Currently thinking about leftists protests in Germany against new TSMC & Tesla factories . Also Nimbyism while blaming landlords.
Back in the day, the European Left would have been the biggest supporters of a new industrial plant, as it offers well paid working and middle class employment. The Left then decided they are no longer interested in social class as a demographic, (us pesky working class types wont do what we are told!) and replaced the traditional Marxist model of class struggle with Identity Politics instead. And that is why we are now here. (And btw, that is why they ignore the exploitation of Chinese workers)
