It's a subset of them who suffer from the delusion that Russia is still socialist somehow.

Also, some are children of people who were indoctrinated to think that Soviet Union is/was a friend and only ever wanted peace and nothing more.

The bad things the Russia is doing now are a continuation of what it has been doing for a century. Accepting that they are in the wrong now would require accepting that they've done bad things before. That's a lot of work, so the mind protects itself from all that thinking.
