I want to reiterate what I wrote. I said that they propose no solution besides X, that doesn't mean that they have no answer, but that their only answer is X. What I said is that their only answer is X and people find that answer problematic.
For context, I don't live in the US and I vote for the left parties of my country, which work for social programs within the status quo, not for breaking the status quo. I get that what the US has is way more extreme, but this is a global forum and there's people from countries where is not so bad. When the conversation is almost binary (you are the west or not, no middle point) and their context is not applicable to all, you get this kind of antagonism. And I get that everyone is not that way, I have had several positive and negative encounters with them, but people remember negative experiences more easily that positive ones.
That's all, have a nice day
