Russians are growing weary of the war against Ukraine but are divided about how much harm it has done and how to end it, according to a report based on polling and focus groups by the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center and the Levada Center, an independent polling group.
I met russians in germany, italy and thailand. 80% were pro Putin. And there was no camera running or a hot microphone. They are that dense. They have no epathy for the victims the kill in ukraine. These people never learned to admit guilt and will deny every accusation by reflex and will get drawn to the image of putin, as a strong, hard, never-budging man. They can not show softness, empathy or sympathy as that would be a weak woman/gay feeling. Russians always want to look tough, hard and like warriors. They are that insecure.
Best description of that mindset
