i was a liberal/leftist until i realised the absolute hypocrisy of the left. I come from a post soviet country, most of those leftist/socialists have never lived under a leftist regime.

But this goes beyond that. Back in 1960's soviet union inflitratted the black panther movement, they funded the movement turned a lot of BP members to socialism. This is how you see BLM stating they are a Marxist movement, BLM is the successor of BP.

Soviet Union realised they could not defeat the West, by an all out war, that would be a pyrhic victory, so they turned to inflitration. UK had the Cambridge 5, universities are a haven for the leftists. Obviously SU is gone now, so one would think Russia would take over the programmes, but no, China took over, this coincides with China's rise in the 90's, and the Confucius Institute 2004.

There is a huge underground support for the right, coming from ethnic minorities, Indians, Bangladeshis.
