I do have an "idea " as you put it. Behaviour is complex. Humans are complex. Life is grey. As I said before- if you care to read it- I think Russia has made a big mistake if many ways. My point was not "attacking" the West-or that you never critique Western powers, but that your repeated critique that posters who present the Russian viewpoint must be trolls or Kremlin mouthpieces fails to take into account the fact that the opposite side are equally guilty of continually espousing the mainstream western narrative with regards to Ukraine/ Russia/Putin and the current situation. Which is a confrontational , provocative, " Putin is the next Hitler, the anti Christ, the leader of the Orcs of Mordor, etc etc" who must be destroyed / killed/ regime change , -irrespective of how the Russian majority -including a large proportion of educated middle class Russians-felt. What I hear from you and your colleagues is exactly the same as coming from CNN, BBC and so on. Which is absolutely propagandist in that espouses one viewpoint only-a pro Ukraine regime line. It is stretching credulity to state that their narrative and ONLY their narrative is accurate. A narrative which is not shared by a significant proportion of the rest of the world as it happens. Whether you believe it or not without question is another matter. That is for you to decide
