Ideological Conundrum for the Mainstream Left - Ukrainian Refugee in Uk

Heading back home due to "too many muslims" and feeling uncomfortable due to the different skin tones.

I'm not altogether sure that a portion of "the Left" in the UK wouldn't rather have the Muslims, not for any conspiracy type reason but they're so reflexively wedded to anti-British/American/western European sentiment from being on the USSR's side during the Cold War that while not really a fan of Russia in Ukraine, feel that if NATO is against it then Putin must be doing something right.

@Lhayezee most UK lefties absolutely welcome people from other countries and my city in particular is incredibly diverse

@Guitarman123 I didn't actually dispute that, and I don't think even "hard" left British people object to Ukrainian refugees either. But there's definitely a contingent among them that - at the same time as being very welcoming - [u]also[/u] have sympathy with Putin's "NATO forced me to do to this", anti-Western argument

Your account says you’re here to make friends and maybe more.

Considering all your posts are trying tell people what to think, how’s the friend hunt going?

@Morvoren where am i telling people what to think?

And dont worry about me and finding friends. Thanks for the concern though

I'd like to read more about that but I'm aware of some conundrums on the left so I wouldn't be too surprised, where various groups ally themselves with the left to promote their own causes, but they are in other areas very conservative and couldn't care less about other groups' rights, etc

Lets assume for a moment that is all absolutely true...
Do you really want this intolerant pr*ck in your country???😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Rather have a thousand Ukrainians than any of the psychotic muslims we have to put up with,killing us every now and then because we dont believe in Allah.At least Ukrainians are basically Christian.

@wonkywinky Thats a common thread.. Ethnicity and religion are two of the biggest dividers in people. Gender being the third. In my view a man or woman should be judges if at all by their actions. I am lucky to live in a society where most tolerate and arent under pressure from "the other", whoever that may be.😷

Somehow I doubt that.
There are different races in Ukraine and Crimean Tatars are Muslims.

@basilfawlty89 Yes and Zelensky is Jewish.
