No worries. I think the first question that should be asked whenever a party does something that raises eyebrows is first "is this even feasible?" and if it's not the next question should always be "so given that it's not feasible, why are they doing it?"

This line of reasoning usually leads to the possible ulterior motives given that it is safe to assume they already know what they're doing won't succeed.

Another potential line of thought is that for any revolution there must be contradiction. One side supporting the USSR and one side supporting the tricolour creates two separate conflicting identities for the nation within society.
