No they don't. That's like the opposite of Russian literature (at least that which had survived through the ages) I'd get if this was a difference in interpretation, but I don't understand how can you even make such a claim, when it is a historic fact that most of the "big names" had been in confrontation with czars, had problems with overcoming censorship or were altogether considered crimanals and were exiles. Either you are confusing the author's point of view with the point of some character (maybe due to cultural perspective and different traditions of virtue signaling), or maybe you don't get the Aesopian language, or worse. Also, ad hominem is quite a valid argument, especially if it comes to subjective stuff. Especially if we have to consider cultural background.
