I used to be rosy eyed like you for a while
I think if you talked to more fellow russians you would be surprised how many support him unironically)
by my estimate more than 50% (of people who have an opinion)

- BobaFloutist 11mo agoI mean the whole thing about perverting statistics is we can't know the truth, since anecdotal surveys are useless (which I realized as a child in 2004 when Bush won despite everyone I knew hating him) and anything big enough to be meaningful is corrupted. Even if they didn't massage the stats after asking people, I doubt everyone is fully comfortable sharing their honest opinions. So...we can't know. We likely never will know, at least how people at large felt in this precise moment.
