The difference is that Germany is ashamed of what they did during that time, and their national ethos is never doing that again.

Meanwhile, Russia idolises the imperialism of the Soviet Union, the only change is that some of their marches have swastikas as well as the hammer and sickle.

Finland had a right to defend itself against the Soviets, and it's not like the West didn't ally with a genocidal mass murderer as well.
