Keep your head up, people like you are the only chance for Russia to improve itself.

But I wouldn't blame you if you decided to move away, sometimes the evil is too strong for individuals to bear.

Unfortunately people like him have been leaving Russia in droves since 1917, then in 1990, etc. The popular support for the war is arguably the result of this negative selection.

"Braindrain" is often significant enough to cause damage to a country, but rarely enough to shape public opinion by "selection".

I blame Poland's right-ward lurch due to similar brain drain.

If you look at the numbers, you probably won't see enough people leaving, even if you assume none of those are "right".
