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.
