    don’t make the mistake to think this is a government only problem. Sure not all Russians are pro-war or pro-putin but a majority of them supports their leader, his efforts and this mindset, they are basically fine with all that crap.

    So again to blame all russians is wrong but this is also not only putins fault, a lot of russian people are also heavy involved in this kind of lifestyle.

      Well it’s hard to blame the people when information and propaganda are controlling their lives in such a specific way.

      Manufactured consent is a very real thing

        I never understood why people can see it locally, but can not understand when applied to Russia and China.

        Do they know they’re being subject to propaganda?
