    Those people don’t want “left wing change” because it helps the people that they hate as well as helping them. They’d rather shit their pants so we have to smell it.

      Exactly, they’re not opposed to oppression and hierarchy they’re opposed to where they are finding themselves in that system.

      They’d be just as happy if instead of receiving help instead “the others” visibly got things worse.

      I agree, they don’t currently. The problem is that most also don’t want right wing change, they just haven’t realised that one or the other is inevitable.

      They’ll probably realise too late, but many would prefer left wing change to right wing change. The problem is, that there just isn’t any substantial left wing options being offered, so they’ll go with the right wing option by default.
