If lesser-evilism would also benefit the proletariat more overall than not, then yes. It would be. But lesser-evilism relies on the fact that you’re delaying the inevitable. Capitalism would eventually destroy quality of life.
Not with critical support. Russia, even if it is bigoted, will benefit the global proletariat more than not. That’s because Russia is fighting against a unipolar imperialist power, and destroying the grip of the western world would make revolutions and potential revolutions much easier.
I would recommend you to read Stalin’s “Foundation of Leninism”, which is based on a cycle of lectures Stalin did in the 20’s. Especially relevant is the chapter 6, where Stalin explains exactly how that which we call “critical support” works.
If you ask me it beats the moral hand wringing about what systems are acceptable and what peoples are worthy of solidarity. You don’t have to be democraticly centralist socialists to gain whatever support I can offer and I dont expect to see a world full of homogeneous leninists when it is time to rest.

Well turns out I have no choice but to support an oligarchy I suppose.
