Have you ever seen anything written by the average lemmy tankie? They will defend Russia because it’s not the US.

No, they will defend Russia's actions because they understand the lead up to the war. The coup, the ceasefire violations, the waves of ethnically russian ukrainian refugees. And because they understand that the west expending itself on unfavorable terms is good for multipolarity and for the people the west would have otherwise used those weapons on.
