It's entirely possible that those calling Russia from abroad would learn something from the conversation as well, but I think it's that absurd to suggest that Russians (who have heavily restricted Internet and media) would be completely resistant to the idea that people calling from places without such restrictions would have information that hasn't been made available to them

You think it's absurd to suggest people react badly to condescension?

There are different ways to discuss political questions and hopefully get a thinking person to adopt your viewpoint. "Educating" them is not one.
