To repeat the example of the Old Left that these guys are so keen to denounce, that sort of multiracial, cross-gender support was a crucial part of their ideology -- you had Russian Slavs working closely with Latinos in Cuba and other parts of Latin America, those Cubans sending military aid to the Angolan blacks fighting European colonialism, with the Chinese on the other side of the world aiding revolutions across diverse Asian populations, all the while women were introduced to levels of equality that was often unmatched by the West.
