Enough do hate the West and hate their eastern European neighbors to control policy and crush internal dissent, as usual. Reality is Russia liquidated, exiled, imprisoned and otherwise disposed of its intelligentsia since 1917 and was none to kind to them before. Reality is Putin hasn't shot a single Ukrainian, ordinary Russians in uniform do. Reality is Putin hasn't raped a single Ukrainian, ordinary Russians do. The modern fetish for blaming leaders for what their tens of millions of eager followers do is a comforting lie beloved of fools. Today ordinary Russians killed, maimed, dehoused, and genocided Ukraine. Their apologists are irrelevant no matter how much simps want to simp.
Every eastern European nation from Finland south has been treated to the tender mercies of ordinary Russians. Stalin didn't pull any triggers at Katyn. Ordinary Russians did then conceal the act. No one in the Politburo shot civilian protesters in Hungary or Czechoslovakia. Ordinary Russians did.
Putin didn't visit the UK to apply Novichok. The Russian government, composed of ordinary Russians, ordered and orchestrated that attack on British soil.
