Theoretically, they're authoritarian leftists. In reality, leftism has little to do with it. They glorify former communist authoritatian countries and are anti-west no matter what the west does. There are pro-russia tankies (Lemmygrad.ml) and pro-china tankies (hexbear.net), with some overlap between them.
Calling them left at all is playing into their game of self-legitimacy at best or trying to delegitimize actually leftism at worst.
Pretty sure those are run by APTs.
