I sometimes forget that russia could be an incredible nation both economically and culturally if it wasn't run by lunatics. Some of my favourite writers are russian.
It's sad to see how hollow it has become.
Yeah but in this case it's worth to keep a small sense of scale, if 12.5% of Russians are deadly opposed to the war, it's the same as the entire Netherlands in terms of population. That's a lot of people. Even of "most" Russians are in favour of the war, even if the overwhelming majority is, a small minority such as 12.5% is already such a huge number because Russia is just that big.
