- chupasaurus 7y ago> Russia has semi-free access to information The only major resources which have permanent ban I know of are PornHub and LinkedIn (not including the sites which were blocked during the Hunt for Telegram, 95% of IPs have been removed after the body which operates the blacklist admitted their fail). > majority of Russians applaud the wars If you got the data from official Russian survey agencies or government, you can divide it by 0 twice. And don't forget that more than half of the population were born in USSR, a third part had been educated in soviet schools and a sixth part in current propaganda-driven schools (started in 2004) which makes a majority alone.

"We're being attacked", "we're on a peace keeping mission", "we're helping oppressed people", "We're fighting terrorists" are messages to get a population to support a war, and you will find a war time press in pretty much any country.
