Gaddafi was really, really not very good, he was just anti-imperialist and better than what the US had in store for Libya. But he's not really a great example of some cool leftist leader or whatever.
Generally very online people tend to be less tied to faith, but there are liberation theology movements that are an integral core of our current leftist vanguard.
Actually for some reason very online people tend to exaggerate the importance of religion, presumably in reaction to annoying reddit atheists or whatever. They talk about all the religious leftist people and if you ask them they're like "oh, I know someone who knows someone like that". Most young people in most developed countries couldn't give two shits about religion and of course you shouldn't be an asshole to the ones that do but religion really isn't that significant in leftist politics and usually tends to be a hurdle. In a few specific places it works advantageously, for specific reasons.
