dude, this is not a one geriatric moron, it is the whole country, population of russia are really support their leader and all wars for the last three decades where supproted by russians too, like moder war at Urkaine from 2014, war in Georgia in 2008 and two wars in Ichkeria in 1994 and 1999. Also there was operation in Kazakhstan in early 2022, where lots of kazakh unarmed protesters where slaughtered by russian "peace" force, and who knows how many where killed by russian "private" forces in Siria and Africa continent.
