They are so eager to prove themselves the assholes that people accuse them of being, and then they whine and cry about instances defederating from them.

I'm pretty sure the whole thing is a false flag/astroturf to discredit sincere leftist discourse. It seems a lot like a blend of bad leftist parody, and edgy 14-year-olds who fell for it

Oh, I literally just had a comment on my thoughts on it. Here is it pasted, since I don't want direct linking to it. TLDR it's probably majority those 14 year olds, not a false flag.

I don't think they are pretending to be those things. They truly believe themselves and their interpretation of Marxism, Marxism-Leninism, communism and socialist projects to be true and just.

The only issue is that they come from a specific strain of western leftist that got into the "uwu dank Soviet club" meme of the mid-10s and never evolved past that understanding of the people, projects, policies and states they stan like a fandom. They could take some lessons from the anarchists tbqh, but they'd rather post PPB and "liberals get the wall". Very annoying.
