    Came here to say this. They present themselves as left-leaning, pro-social justice. But if you look at their sympathies and where they have the most affection… it’s countries run by a strong single person: China, Russia, similar. Those are not communist countries.

    Everyone would be better off ignoring that individual because by misrepresenting their ideas, they do a disservice to everyone. I don’t think they’re even tracking to the fact they do this.

      There’s actually a decent amount of questioning in their private circles–Unfortunately, they convince themselves that such horrible and authoritarian things are for the greater good. I find it crazy that they celebrate the boot on their own neck.
