was just talking with my coworker who recently moved from russia to states because he wanted to save his family from russian reality. he spent last few days talking with his friends and family "back there". he says that most of them totally brainwashed, say that everything that west shows about ukraine it's fake and propoganda. total misunderstanding of the fact that russian economy pretty much ended over the weekend. sure that everything is good and they "liberate republics for neo-nazi junta".

dude is devastated

I can imagine, that's got to be absolutely terrible.

Long ago I had a similar situation with the parents of my partner who were in a completely different reality, 'their main tactic was head down and ignore it all, be grateful that you are alive and shut up'.
