Lately it's been seeming the opposite to me, whenever a criticism is made against soviets / ex Soviets

Depends on the criticism. The Red Scare is well-documented, and the soviet archives are (somewhat) open, we can begin to really dig through history and verify or deny allegations. Soviet historians have been doing just that, actually.
