I'm sorry for those of the 11 percent innocent (1) that are left there, happy that many fled the dictatorship.

(1) 89% of Russians approved Putin and the 2014 Crimean invasion

> 89% of Russians approved Putin

According to Putin.

No according to different pollsters.

Lewada, the pollster which got sacked later as a "foreign agent", got 86%

86, 89 what's the difference? Putin is running a fascist elderly home at this point. Younger people in Russia won't be able to buy gas or hail a ride now.

That's terrible. Meanwhile, in Ukraine they bombed another shopping center.

See the difference? Dual use / military goals vs mass murdering civilians.

No, what does it matter if he has 89 or 86% approval? Obviously who cares if Russians can't hail a ride? They should've stayed home as Bohumil Hrabal used to say in Closely Observed Trains about those other invaders.
