To be clear, the stance of Marxists in general is that if NATO didn't exist, the conditions for the war would not exist either. You likely aren't going to find many Marxist-aligned orgs that are pro-NATO.

I'm not trying to argue, just to understand -

Are they just mad that NATO thwarted the USSR? Have they not realized that Russia is a fascist/capitalist regime today?

NATO is a millitary alliance of the most Imperialist countries on the planet, and protects that Empire, exerting pressure on other countries. It has nothing to do with "being mad that NATO thwarted the USSR." Of course Marxists realize that Russia is Capitalist today, Marxists understand that better than anyone else. It would obviously be much better for everyone had the USSR not dissolved, but we don't live in that timeline, sadly.
