I’ve repeatedly seen posts on lemmy.ml defending Russia and NK, both brutal dictatorships that tread on human rights with feet, so no. I am most certainly not making stuff up
Defending them isn’t the same as saying they are flawless. What is the point of criticizing North Korea? Especially from a country like the US who does far more harm to the world than either NK or Russia.
Just because the US is a pile of crap doesn’t make it remotely acceptable to defend brutal dictatorships that will arrest you for simply being gay. Or throw you out of a window if you complain about their dear leader too much.
