They were never "anti-Russia." They were anti-Soviet. Russia flipped from communism to fascism, so they flipped from hating to loving it.

There's a lot of things that are inconsistent and hypocritical about conservatives, but their attitude towards Russia isn't one of them.

I have many recollections of conservatives in my sphere not distinguishing Russia from the USSR, so we have had different experiences in this regard.
