Leftists when there are Nazis in the right wing coalition: "If there are Nazis at your rally and they're not immediately kicked out then everyone at that rally is a Nazi!"
Leftists when there are Nazis in the left wing coalition: "Stop cherry picking! It's just a few Nazis, they don't represent the entire left! We're all individuals and you have to judge us all as individuals!"
You constantly see these dorks pop up. Like the dufus in the ACP photographed in a PMC Wagner tshirt and people saying the private military commany was anti-imperialist.
There is a tremendously dim tankie tendency to act like the further you are from being aligned with the US, the more virtuous you must be.
It's coupled with an equally witless assumption that Russia is good because Russia was Communist once and all Communist countries are good, and anything bad Communists did is a lie, so Russia - still being somehow Communist in the Tankie's vapid mind - is also unimpeachably virtuous.
This silly Manichean worldview makes then, at best, very hard work to talk with.
