It's only Republican politicians who are in love with Russia. Everyone else still hates them due to Cold War propaganda.
Plenty of leftist-Tankies here on Lemmy's federation where I've had to explain that yes, Russia is a problem and what they're doing to Ukraine should be stopped.
The left is doing a good job preventing the Tankies from taking over their party however. Republicans are letting the far-right dictate politics and are likely going to (try to) cut Ukraine out of the budget this week. So the far-right is a bigger problem, if only because Republicans are failing to rise up and counter the threat from their own party.
No, Republicans are in love with Putin. Putin hates Russia, Republican do the same.
