    Don’t play dumb, it’s the geopolitical version of “I’m not racist, but…”

    People who know their views are reprehensible to most reasonable people, so aren’t willing to outright say what they believe, but will still argue the point.

    And if you press them hard enough, you almost always find out they somehow blame Ukraine for being invaded.

      Yes, like what you did, when you lied about people supporting Russia when you just meant that they aren’t as opposed to them as you think they should be.

          They never do, and you know that very well, thats why you were trying to slip in the redefinition to “not opposing Russia enough
