Wow, I will never understand how non-white people can subscribe to right wing ideology in western countries, never fails to blow my mind.

Western countries are fundamentally right-wing; the politics of colonialism, capitalism, hierarchy and domination are what allowed them to amass the economic and cultural power to be the countries they are today. Subsequently, the populations left in the wake of this subjugation are naturally going to have to wrestle with contradictions between white prosperity and non-white impoverishment under a Western paradigm. If you're trying to fit in or even just merely a passive observer, it seems like "common sense" that prosperity is had through right-wing mantras. It's "common sense" that Black people are in the situation they're in is because they're inferior to white people in some way.

You have to develop empathy and a radical sentiment of always questioning the "why" of the world to start leaning towards leftism, which is basically swimming upstream for people who are caught within a Western environment without the educational and psychological tools to deconstruct its basic principles and propaganda.

In short, put an animal in a shitty environment and you're going to get a shitty animal.
