It's exactly like a religious spell. It's really surprising that it actually works, and works really well- people still kind of like OJ Simpson ffs. It's something Vlad and our President have in common. The stupidity of the stupid motherfuckers in this world is very frustrating.
It's not really that surprising. It's worked all throughout recorded history. Make people feel special about themselves. Give them a scapegoat to fear and hate, and promise to protect them as long as they follow you. Oldest trick in the book.
Thing is, I doubt you'll find many Russian who don't believe Putin himself ordered the attempted hit on the Skripals. That only makes him, "cooler" in their eyes. Russians love the strongman leader. You will still find Russians who idolise Stalin, even though he killed more Russians than Hitler did.
Russian economy circling the drain? No matter! Motherland is stronk under Tsar Putin, comrade! West must fear The Bear!
