Tell that to the rightist trot in the patsoc student group I left. He was whining about his freeze peach to assign RFK Jr’s book to his students (he was a professor I think). I spent too much time debating him before I stopped responding. He responded to my disengagement by calling me an authoritarian Stalinist.

Eh I've met a few. Self-described "leftists" who don't actually engage in anything beyond the theatre of electoral politics.
