I think it's really telling how rarely they even try to claim to be the patriots. It's just not really an angle they try to push that often because, well, as you say...they hate America.
the only times they do it, it's obvious doublespeak where they are lashing out because the Right correctly uses their anti-Americanism against them, and the typical reflex reaction of a Leftist in such situation is to just lie to the extreme.

It’s the same as leftists quoting the Bible in arguments.
