I've befriended a few, have Indian American friends that tell me what their close Indian immigrants friends are like, work with them every day, and see/interact with them in the city daily

it's kinda uncomfortable for krakkker leftists

It should make them feel better knowing the average legal immigrant from developing countries nowadays have many many times more wealth and higher income than the average white leftist and it's not even close

Even if it wasn't the case it should be okay to criticize shitty ideologies; but it's understandable for a white yank to preffer avoiding shitting on a "brown" collective, because even if they were fucking saudi princelings, if it feels racist to focus on them don't fucking do it.

Gusanos are easier to pick on without feeling racist because lots of them aren't brown and would even try to kill you if you call them brown, plus the white gusanos usually actively hate and reject the culture of their "home" country.
