Pretty much, Russia has definitely earned the reputation even back when it was being "socialist" - it's an imperialist hellhole, one that also meddles in today's politics by funding far-right parties like AfD.

Though, I personally take issue when the russophobia doesn't stop at targeting the state and its ruling class who made these decisions, but to the Russian working class as well, all of whom are getting exploited in the standard capitalist fashion but also a section being conscripted to kill and die for their ruling class benefit and their imperialist interests. That's why it doesn't feel right to me when a country targets Russian nationals with discriminatory laws in a fashion that's not too different from 9/11's treatment of Arab people that most of us can agree was wrong.
