We’ve had reporting that even people in Russia were surprised by how broad an invasion this is. And it contrasts the way that Putin has framed it at home. Which also begs the question: why decouple/undersell how this “operation” tied to his vision for a restored Russia? — PolitiTweet.org

This video btw is what got me thinking about the likely lack of connection younger Russians have with Putin’s vision — PolitiTweet.org

My best guess is that he knows an imperial war is harder to sell than a war of self-defense like WWII. Hence the conflicting justifications he’s given Russians: it’s just defending Russian speakers but also about Ukraine wanting to destroy Russia but just the Neo-Nazis in Kyiv — PolitiTweet.org
