I'm gonna dissent from the majority opinion here and say: fuck them, you don't owe them shit just because they've begun to exhibit some baseline sympathy for the less fortunate that should be expected of any human being.
Being a good leftist doesn't require you to engage with people who have traumatized you, especially if they haven't taken any steps to make amends.
I learned from a young age that I should assume that every Cracker is a racist until proven otherwise. I think that coming to that realization was harder on me than living with that realization.
I don't mean what I said in the sense of "never befriend crackers". Half of my closest friends are white, but I didn't get close to any of them before getting to know them and making sure none of them were racist chuds beforehand.

Agree, i think the people disagreeing are just showing their ass and class privilege.
