    i know few of them personally and generally those who live outside of Russia are against the regime and those who live inside Russia say they are not affected and are apolitical or that all countries to the west are controlled by US and want to steal Russian land + resources.

    It’s also funny to hear what they get to hear in tv aside from UK like that time they were told that in Europe it is so dry that people don’t have water to drink or that people are freezing in winter because no RU gas

        I feel like ‘every’ winter in RU is especially shitty and other seasons are just varying degrees of said shit. Partially Because of geolocation, mostly due to a fair, ethical, and honest government supplying the needed infrastructure and resources to its people via a practice called Communal-ism.

          Yeah I’m not sure how much the geolocation has to do with it. Scandinavia seems to be doing just fine. Perhaps even “very well.”
