Hexbear unironically defends Russia, which is an extremely racist and homophobic place. Likewise, China is also an extremely racist place, which is increasingly opposed to LGBT advocacy as "western degeneracy." And of course, they fall over themselves to defend tyranny, as long as it pays lip service to socialist ideals, while denigrating social democrats as insincere "shit libs." Then they post their little arms crossed emoji thinking they've made some point.
By and large these people are children who legitimately have an extremely narrow view of the world they seek to critique. They see Lenin write that "imperialism is something everyone other than Russia does" and that's about as far as they look into the underlying philosophy of imperialism.
