Ba’athism is not the socialism you have in mind.
It goes without saying Hexbear and Lemmygrad and .ml have funny ideas about what their simp nations are like, though.
Are they actually defending Assad’s regime, torture and all?
They’re not, they are criticizing that and having a more nuanced conversation about the role of capitalism in this situation.
That user is just obsessed with them. Even if they clearly have never been in those communities to see for themselves
No, I’ve definitely spent plenty of time in the leftosphere.
Who are “they”, here? MLs that support Assad seem like a majority, or at least were until recent events. The only “nuance” tends to be if Assad’s totally cool or if you should just critically support him for being against America (because there’s only two sides, right?).
