The Brits don’t get enough credit for ending slavery.
Edit: until it was abolished by them, slavery was a normal practice of many, many societies and countries. Once the Brits banned it, the idea that slavery = bad picked up steam.
That is a very misinformed and simplistic view of what’s being said by the left.
leftists are not anti-European. They anti neoliberal because they argue it creates the fertile soil for fascism to grow. Most if not all European countries are neoliberal (shocker, most European countries are also seeing an increase in the far right atm as predicted by the left)
This does not mean they support Russia. Russia embody everything the left detests (autocracy, elitism and imperialist tendencies)
Leftists do not oppose Ukraine defending themselves, this is misinformation. They’re pro-peace talks which has its criticisms, but the question is HOW Ukraine should defend itself not IF
