I like Russian people. Some of my best friends, well, you know. But sometimes they are just too much.
56,7% of people in Russia support the invasion of Ukraine.
63,8% of the same people, however, are against a war between Russia and Ukraine.
How these respondents process the contradiction is a mystery. Oh, the mysterious Russian soul!
Stupid is as stupid does. 😦

That kind of cognitive dissonance is found in every human population.

I’d hardly call it mysterious, but rather prone to posing dramatically seeking either heroism or respect for its’ natural intelligence.
What the data say is that 56,7%, or some part of that 56,7% want an easy, unopposed invasion, rather like the stuff of the most melodramatic films about the great patriotic war.

They want Ukraine to surrender without war.

That seems like the logical conclusion.
