    I don’t think Russians oppose the war. Everything I’m reading is somewhere between 75% and most, are for the war.

    Oh, and since the war started, Southeast Asia has boomed in Russian holiday-makers. So while their country invades another, its people are tanning on beaches in record numbers.

      It’s very risky to publicly oppose Putin. Great way to become jailed or dead.

      And better they are on a beach than killing Ukranians. The ones that flee are leaving to avoid participating in the conflict.

      Meanwhile, Putin needs to die.

        Yeah, some random Russian pollster calls you and asks if you approve of the war. Are you honest or are you going to say what they want to hear so they don’t report you to someone?
