>actual polling says that most don't even want to negotiate

There is no actual polling. You just can't have polls when for "wrong" answers people may be imprisoned, sent to war or killed. This polls have nothing to do with reality, they only show what the government considering as the "wrong answers". So we can only judge about people's opinion by indirect evidence. And banned leaving, forced conscription and canceled elections - are pretty strong evidence

I gave you a citation, I suggest you read it. The actual survey details were linked from it, and it fully falsifies your claim.

They trust the armed forces and Zelensky without having to trust the government, see slide 26.

Churchill demonstrated otherwise.

Also, you keep saying "forced" conscriptions like conscription isn't forced by definition. And also like it's not really common when nations fear or are at war, which is why Israel and Finland also have it:

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_Israel

and why the US had it from 1940 until 1973: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_the_United_Sta...
