" In the process the USSR controlled Eastern Europe, and now they are furious for that and blame - surprise - not the communist parties, not the communism, not the USSR but specifically ethnic Russians."
I don't think so. There are some with simplistic minds who follow this line of reasoning, but I'd argue that most sympathize with "average Russians", being aware that you're victims more than anyone else.
The only thing that makes people wonder is the opinion polls, when high support for Putin among the Russian population is claimed. Some consider these polls false, but some wonder just how much you've been brainwashed.

Still, the seeds found fertile soil of people whose whole life was a failure so now their standards are drastically lowered. I'm not sure this is fixable, imagine the whole country of people with childhood trauma, this is not much different but followed by adulthood trauma as well.
