You have to remember that a chunk of these accounts are bots or bad actors, and others are falling for the bots and bad actor's propaganda.
I would consider myself a true leftist. I am a member of a Socialist org, and I have been called a 'tankie' before, even though I'm not exactly ML, and I have never shown support for Russia or China in my lifetime.
I obviously am not a fan of the Democratic party, but I will absolutely be voting for Harris, because I realize that the GOP is so so much worse for my LGBTQ friends, women, the Palestinian genocide, and just the world in general. Most leftists I know IRL have stated the same.
Just chiming in to let it be known that not all leftists are like that.
