It didn't seem like a good faith question so I didn't bother answering, but it seems at least one person in the shadows thinks it was, so I'll answer it:

I was thinking of people who think the Uyghur genocide is fake news, the Holodomor was an accident and Ukraine ought to be a Russian territory again, and the DPRK is a wonderful place to live. If you disagree with that on the fediverse, there tends to be much gnashing of teeth from certain people who otherwise make sane political arguments about the biggest evils we currently face, at least in my country (e.g. Epstein Class Bad, Trump Bad, Fascism Bad).

As for your two points, I haven't met anyone who supports genocide or the blocking of labor strikes, so I don't know why you thought those up.
