You don't know any Russians then, haha

Or you don't know any self-styled "real Americans".

I'm thinking more of their cold war strategizing, but I also ask you, have you ever met an American QAnon enthusiast? ;)

Yes, and they seem to be mostly anti-war.

The ones I know of seem pretty bent on it, especially civil war.

Average Russian are busy trying to live their lives. They do not wake up and start plotting WW III as a morning exercise.
