      That is one of the things that makes me a little hopeful tbh. They can only really focus on the “villain of the week” and so kind of forget that they are supposed to be hateful to other nations as well unless they are constantly reminded. Once that propaganda tap is shut off, the people will stop blindly hating so much, hopefully.

        It doesn’t really exist for most people. I think the majority have moved on from Russia if they were really paying attention at all and only those who have the free time and luxury to be online for close to 12 hours a day give a shit.

          I still walk past one house that proudly displays a Ukrainian flag on their front porch every day. I wonder how much they still think about the war, or when they’ll finally take the flag down. It’s become incredibly faded at this point, and looks more like an old beach towel.
