    How about obsessively focusing on Israel over similar situations happening in other nations? Because that seems to be the case with some far left types, they’ll, justifyably, criticise Israel’s treatment of Palestinians, but when it comes to China’s treatment of Uyghurs, they don’t want to know, or will outright deny it as China is superficially socialist.

        Ok, so why do so many of them fall over themselves to make excuses for Russia’s current invasion of Ukraine?

          Anyone supporting a far right authortian government shouldn’t be considered “on the left”…

          That should be obvious, but I guess I’m overestimating people again if you honestly believe them.

        Well yeah, and they’re usually the ones getting called out for anti-Semitism, eg, Corbyns supporters in Momentum.
