No, they weren't. No more than North Koreans are a party of Democrats and believe in democratic ideals. Just because they attached a name to themselves does not mean they were/are such.

I was unaware members of the left can’t be racist, whoops.

Hmmmm, don't ever recall saying anything like that. There are many people on the left who have abhorrent ideals as well. Communists are very strict in many things and were very hateful in their own way. They imprisoned homosexuals for example. Stalin was brutal toward anyone who did not meet his ideal of Soviet purity and sent them to the gulag. Much of that was related to race or ethnicity. So I have no idea what orifice you pulled that from, but it was nothing I said nor believe to be true.
