>they are the only ones who genuinely are pushing for annexing what they call “so called ‘ukraine’” due to their strong nationalist beliefs. Basically they are the most ideologically aligned with Putin but also the most critical of his failures.
The only loud protest voices coming out of russia seem to be complaining about loses, poor soldier conditions, not killing Ukrainians fast enough etc. Even so called ru opposition turned out to be all in on helping russian soldiers (TV Rain). No anti war/regime protests to speak off, plenty anti mobilization ones tho.

Which voices are you referring to? > Even so called ru opposition turned out to be all in on helping russian soldiers (TV Rain) TV Rain didn't send any help to Russian soldiers.
- rasz 4y agoAll you need to know about Navalny anti war stance is covered by his opinion on Crimea. He was pro 2014 invasion back in 2014, and nothing changed.

(On the other hand, he did say the infamous "Crimea is not a sandwich" thing later in 2014.)
- throw-ru-938 4y ago> No anti war/regime protests to speak off There were some in February and March, even though they were not very impressive. But then again, just today a leader of Russian opposition was sentenced to 8 1/2 years in prison for posting a video about Bucha on Youtube. > plenty anti mobilization ones tho If there's "plenty" of these, surely you could Google some up very easily?
