Lets pretend you are not a bot. How can you claim that Russians aren't Nazis? That's an absurd statement. Any nation can evolve into a Nazi state. Just because you fought against Nazis decades ago doesn't mean you're immune to becoming Nazis yourself.
Finally, two things can be true at the same time: A nation can have Nazis in its ranks and simultaneously be a victim of foreign aggression. Let's not forget which nation first crossed which other nation's borders.
27 million Soviets lost their lives to German Nazis in WWII. 13.7 million of those were civilians. The largest losses of human life in WWII. Modern Russians still revere communists like Lenin even though their current state is not communist. Communists are ideologically on the opposite end of the spectrum than Nazis.
Even US-funded propaganda abroad Radio Free Europe acknowledges that Putin is not a fascist: “The experts generally believe that Putin's Russia is not fascist. Although they note the existence of some similarities between Putinism and fascism, such as revanchism and "hypermasculine authority", they argue that Putin's Russia lacks the mass mobilization and the revolutionary nationalism which were fundamental characteristics of fascist movements.”
Nazism and fascism are far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist. Putin may be his own flavor of evil, but he’s a traditionalist oligarch, not a Nazi or an imperialist, which many falsely claim.
