I've heard right-wing people say the same about socialists and communists, though. Especially ones with family from communist areas, like Cuba, or the former Soviet block will say, "socialists think it will be good but they've never been there to know how bad it is." If you bring up sanctions or something, they'll just say you're diminishing their family's lived experience. Some conservative Americans will say the same thing if some European criticizes them for not having universal healthcare. "Sure it works over there, but not over here where there's too much diversity. You just don't know our local experience", blah blah blah. Just saying, it's easy language to co-opt and people don't always know what's good for them lol.
Well yeah of course, right wingers project everything
