And education on the subject(s) here is obviously pro-American, looking at situations where the US backed dictatorships and/or fascism over the course of the last 75 years or so - while framing our foreign policy, incessantly, as "promoting democracy" or some similar refrain - through red, white, and blue-tinted glasses.

The US and USSR's involvement in WWII and the subsequent Cold War are not anywhere near the black and white conflict it's viewed as from our slanted perspective.

And that shouldn't be taken as a full-throated defense of the USSR/Russia, either. It's not. Just echoing your point, in that Capitalism vs. Communism isn't anywhere near black and white. Communism isn't the devil it's made out to be here.
