    They don’t really believe Russia is socialist to any degree, they just support it because it (supposedly) opposes the western hegemony, USA/NATO, etc.

    Basically the same logic as that of pro-Russian right-wingers.

      I had a bunch of hexbear and ml’s tell me russian war crimes in Berlin were “Nazi myths”. Apparently the Nazis had more influence over the world of historical academia after they lost than Russia.

      Also other allied war crimes did happen and weren’t Nazi myths.
