  • Russians have a peculiar mentality.

    Something with this. I still can't comprehend how they'd rather send their family members to war than doing some serious protesting.

    We have some very distant relatives in Kaliningrad and from what I've heard the mood there is "if they tell us to go to war, we'll go - what can you do, eh?"

  • Depending where they live and how they live, their relationship with the news is likely to be they're only getting state sponsored news. So if you're told that the evil Ukrainians with support from the archenemies, the USA and NATO, are trying to kill ethnic russians who want to return to the motherland, it's probably seen as a war I don't want to fight but we have to, so off I go.

  • Sometimes I have a little browse on the GlobalTimes.cn website and my word their take is depressing, more so than the RT propaganda that’s out there at the best of times
