You underestimate the power of propaganda. I guess you can find some Russia Today videos or maybe some translated recordings from the Russia's state TV and check for yourself. They are very good at this. Some of the otherwise kind and humane people I know believe in this BS (yes, they really believe that Russia is fighting Nazis and liberating people). Arguing with them is useless (I told they are otherwise kind and humane, I did not say anything about them being smart). And I don't see reasons for this to change anytime soon. Consider how well it works on you. Do you do any research when you read news (especially such terrifying news)? Most people do not - they have some opinion and then reinforce it. This is war and all parties lie, and there are questions to be asked (if you, for some silly reason, want to get closer to the "truth").
