The Left appears to be hindered by Eurocentrism, focusing more on their own struggles with government policies towards migrant minorities in Europe. They applied their analysis of this situation to events in our countries, neglecting the vital resistance forces against the Muslim Far Right. In prioritizing victims of the state, they created a hierarchy of victims, overlooking those targeted by non-state actors. By failing to address the crimes committed by Muslim fundamentalist non-state groups against women, they also established a hierarchy of rights, where women's rights are placed last, after religious, cultural, and minority rights.
