"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

Don’t idealize the non-Western working class, because people outside isn’t progressive, revolutionary or extremely class councious.

I didn't. You need to consider learning from where organisation has been successful not where it has not. The whole reason I said we need a deep dive statisitical analysis is because of the complexities since workerism and trade unionism isn't cutting it.

None of the rest of what you said is what I am saying so I don't have much else to add. Westerners in the imperial cores have distinct class characteristics against the Global South that needs to be tackled. Brazilian politics overemphasises the non-favelas over the favelas (to generalise) rooted in colorism/anti-indigienous/anti-black politics based on relative class characteristics + their own comprador bourgoisie demographics and own colonialism - the islamophobia is USAmerican politics bled over (as it is the world over).
