    sing praise about Russia

    I have never seen a communist claim that the modern Russian government is good or communist, only that it opposes western hegemony, to the occasional benefit of poor nations in the global south.

      Doesn’t it kinda imply it, though? They (probably) wouldn’t support an outright nazi regime even if it opposed western hegemony, and Putin’s regime is almost exactly that, especially after the war.
