And...maybe the troops in the military (knowing what is happening in Ukraine) don't fully support Putin either and some of them start joining the group. Link to comment
knapplc Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Reading that Ukraine's objective now is to entrap Wagner in Bakhmut. To that end they are making gains encircling the city, which has prompted Wagner's leader to announce his fighters are leaving the city soon. Ridiculous campaign by the Russians/their mercenaries.

It's shocking how many Russians still support Putin, but if you look at the steady diet of nationalist propaganda they're fed, Putin is simply the patriotic strongman defending his country against a conspiracy of Russia haters who lie about everything, including Ukraine. A cynic might see a similar pattern in the U.S. 1 1 Link to comment

How many of those would turn on him if they saw a valid group willing to take up arms against him? Link to comment

I don't know, but it wouldn't be hard to marginalize them as a small group of murderous traitors with a cryptic agenda and allegiances. Which they kinda are. It's much harder to lead political and popular opposition to Russia using accurate information about Ukraine. That would literally be more fatal than operating a tank in Donetsk. Link to comment
