"The country" at large is supporting the government. Otherwise there would be sabotage left and right. Stalin may have been "the" bad guy, but there have been people actively producing millions of denunciations, right? So there's the "bad guy" Putin, but there are millions of "little people" serving his causes and seeing nothing bad about it. Just making a little money, always looking out for number one.
- sAbakumoff 5y ago>> Otherwise there would be sabotage left and right Sabotage attempts in modern Russia are monitored and persecuted. Non-government orgs and media are declared to be "foreign actors". The opposition is effectively destroyed. Opposition leaders are convicted(unless they had a chance to flee). "Little people" do not necessarily support it, but they afraid for their freedom, their health and their life. You can't blame them for that
