@dima7b Then the question is: Why they chose this? They chose a fake reality, why? Why not stand up for good things?

@dima7b Maidan gave hope. My Russian mother in law climbed the barricades and shouted at the police.

@andersostlund Quite common, our Estonian neighbour dislikes critique of Moscow, just like a Norwegian-Belarusian friend defends Lukashenko -
@StaffanG_son Unfortunately so. Swedish friend of mine married to Russian woman called Putin democrat, Crimea vote legal. -
@andersostlund Had a long disc at dinner with Swe-Rus tourist guide to St Petersb last year, she couldn't understand Swedes fear for Russia. -
@StaffanG_son I met a UK educated Russian director of Swedish company in Russia. She claimed Crimea was "ours" and Putin best world leader. -
@andersostlund There is some kind of deep complex identity beneath. -
@StaffanG_son Yes. The director I met was brilliant as long as we spoke business when politics came up she spoke like a child. -
@andersostlund@StaffanG_son actually this could be the answer - they just don't have political "organ", it became atrophied - End of conversation

@ArtoNatkynmaki Almost every Russian abroad I have met fiercely supports Putin. -
@andersostlund@ArtoNatkynmaki Almost every Russian that I meet outside Russia dislike Putin. But they usually live outside Russia. -
@ldybdahl@ArtoNatkynmaki Almost every Russian outside Russia I meet support Putin. Only exception is Ukraine where many Russians hate Putin

@andersostlund Errr... Because they still watch Russian TV.@GorseFires -
@PaulNiland@GorseFires That is not enough of an excuse Paul. There is also the question why they choose to watch Russian TV? Why not www? -
@andersostlund What would they look at on the web? People search sites confirming personal bias or challenging it?@GorseFires -
@PaulNiland Of course you are right Paul, they look for confirmation. But I say it is a choice they make and that implies responsibility.
