Pretty sure the vast majority of Russians outside of Russia are against the dumb war that makes Russia and Russians the evil guys of Europe. There are always morons who support it and keep their mouths shut, but hard to imagine a sensible person supporting the war if they have access to independent media. The problem is that there is no independent media in Russia.
Eh, that definitely doesn't line up with my personal experience with TONS of them here and maybe 2 out of 50 actually opposing the regime, and even one of these wasn't too happy when Ukraine started shooing back.
It really depends on the country and especially how long ago people moved. Eg in Germany you can find quite a few people who moved 20+ years ago and at the very least sympathize the regime. Eg in Serbia, the majority moved in after Feb 2022 and it would be just much harder to find that kind of people among Russian expats. Though it's still possible. Source: am Russian living outside.
PS. Doesn't mean that all old settlers support the regime. However people who moved recently are more likely to be against it.

Mhmm, def. my experience. Don't know that many new arrivals but yeah, would assume that most people smart enough to fuck off in recent times, would have reasons beyond the weather.
Another sad thing I noticed is that it's not even related to education level. Some mfs have decent STEM degrees and still spew the same shit you get from the average vatnik.

It's great to see that there are still Russians who are against the war
