        And the ones that don’t believe it have to shut up. Imagine being against the Iraq War post 9/11 in the US, but your bullies can get you put in jail.

        I don’t know why you are getting downvoted. It’s true and you don’t need to be pro-russian or believe it to acknowledge the propaganda.

        What I don’t get is how they can look at the rest of the western world backing Ukraine and not wonder “are we the baddies?” Or maybe they do and that creates cognitive dissonance too big to handle. Or they’re told all western countries are Nazis.

        They are being told they are fighting ukrainians, who are nazis that drink blood and do satanic rituals. And they swallow it up and don’t even blink. Fuck em
