Not really. Since we don't have the ability to instance block ourselves yet I changed instances to one not federating with them to avoid them and similar authoritarian instances like lemmygrad and exploding heads. I swing pretty far left on the political spectrum myself, but there's a difference between that and simping for dictators, genocide denial, and other problematic things. I don't even get it, China and Russia can hardly be described as leftist by any definition but they'll bend over backwards to defend anything they do, and try to change the subject to another country instead if they can't.
I really don't understand the defense of Russia. Like if you are claiming to be communist, it's arguably the worst example of exploitative capitalism going right now. Or they claim it's because of colonialism while ignoring Russia's history of conquering and controlling any nation near them.
