Are there? Normally I see them saying things like "All Settlers are Legitimate Targets of Resistance(tm)"
Stalin was an anti-semite who was planning his own Holocaust:

Notable Jewish person, btw: Karl Marx.
So, I guess original flavor tankies are just following their favorite leader?
Can we skip past the genocide to the bit where they piss themselves and die, then?
Tbf, he skipped that part too. Poor guy never got to do his last purge of "enemies of the state" 😔

Yes, that is one of the things quoted in the wikipedia article. You'll notice that there's some other stuff that comes after it.
They absolutely are. Don't forget tankies have never been ideologically consistent. They'll espouse whatever they need at the moment to further Putin and the anti-west interests.
