Her argument revolves around “Well Russia was provoked so they’re actually fighting an anti imperialist war” and the predisposition you’ve to have in order to agree with her argument is that you believe most or at least a big part of the official Russian narrative.

First of all, it is wrong to entirely dismiss the Russian side in the Ukrainian conflict. Russians have as much of a right to explain their side as the bloodthirsty West. Also, it is important to remind you that the West is not a truthful/reliable source as you think it is.

Continuing with that thought, the information mentioned by the Russians was also echoed plenty of times by Western media. This was collected by comrades in this thread post below and it is specially tailored for people that yet operate in the western framework(just like you are doing as of now):

Even if Russia really was provoked and is fighting for it’s own sovereignty (by invading another country? but ok) then it’s still a capitalist nation that’s preying upon the nostalgia of its Soviet past and it’s absolutely not becoming even slightly more communist by the day.

You keep looking down on our russian comrades with this other statement. What if I told you that Russia has way more probability to become socialist again than the whole European countries(that are actively rushing into fascism)?

It is better to take a step back on your contempt and investigate what russian comrades have achieved so far.
