Who is "we"?
The lemmy devs run lemmy.ml. They're kind of...out there, politically.
The lead dev, dessalines, has material like:
https://dessalines.github.io/essays/socialism_faq.html
Dessalines is in the "we need the Soviet Union back and Stalin is awesome" camp. He was using a picture of Stalin as his profile picture for a while.
Like complaining about attacks on LGBT people while supporting Russia and the USSR seems just the most hypocritical thing I can think of. Does he not know Stalin mandated a 5 year minimum forced labor sentence in Siberia for being gay and Russia today is only mildly better for LGBT people.
Frankly, I think that complaining that a government headed by a Jewish guy is anti-semitic is even more bonkers.
That being said, I'm sure that dessalines didn't originate that himself -- that's apparently big in Russia's propaganda.
Lavrov, Russia's foreign minister, rather infamously had a quote shortly after the start of the invasion, when asked about the whole "how anti-Semitic can Ukrainians be if they chose to elect a Jewish president" thing:

Nazi and fascist have different meanings in Russia. They mean people working against the interests of Russia, it originates from the USSR. For example the gay community was labeled fascist during the soviet occupation here.

You know there crazy when they think the left is the far right
TBF the Azov Battalion is a real neo nazi us funded (through Ukraine support) group... So... Not entirely wrong?
Sure. You can find ideologically opposite militias fighting for Ukraine too, though. Zelensky is in charge and he's obviously not a Nazi. He's a Jewish guy who really wants to save Ukraine as it is and is completely willing to go full Western-progressive to do it. Singling Azov out without the context is basically a propaganda technique.
Also, Russia is acting a bit like Nazis from the very highest levels, except a shittier more openly corrupt version.
Yeah I don't disagree that the overall claim by Russia is bullshit, that doesn't take away from the fact they do exist and are outwardly nazi.
Oh, yea, the Ukrain military has a bit of a nazi problem but the time to deal with that is not when you are being invaded. Also the nazi talking point is mostly a red herring anyways since the nazi problem in Russia is magnitudes worse and isn't limited to their military.
So it's technically not wrong but tankies don't really have a problem with nazies, otherwise they wouldn't be defending Russia, they are anti USA and will side with anything that's even close to that side with no regards to any other belief. I'm not a fan of the US either but I'm not going to blindly support anything against it either.
