“We haven’t attacked Ukraine either. We’re defending our territory”, “Ukraine was ours then [in USSR], too!”, “It [Ukraine] was always part of Russia”, - this Russian woman is a good illustration of how an average Russian person sees the war and Ukraine. It is a mix of propaganda, ignorance and stereotypes, with little independent thinking.
Fuck me this is depressing. How many Ukrainians have to tell them to fuck off and leave them alone before they realise?
Why are they so deluded? Nobody ever spent a moment thinking about russia, yet they think everyone was bothered.
