That's something I've recently realized. They think people dislike them because they're leftist, but that has very little to do with it. Some of their harshest critics are from the left.

They have no idea it's because of their authoritarian simping, and every time you call them out on it, they deflect. Frankly they more strongly support fascist regimes than their criticizers.

I think the paid shills know what's going on, they're told to act like leftists and probably don't actually hold those beliefs. They might be brainwashed to think the CCP/Kremlin is good.

So in my opinion they pretend people are "upset that they're leftist" in order to avoid people focusing on their actual motives.
