I lived in USSR, and suppression of speech and opposition is exactly needed to have such high popularity. The transition into 199x shown that informed population doesn't allow to sustain such high popularity, and this is why Russian regime has been tightening the screws back over the last 22 years.

Yet, there is no need to enthusiastically point to a next country. Almost all pointing to the same one is extremely suggestive of it being a genuine result.

>I'm only asking whether you really believe that 75% people support the ongoing war and support starting war with multiple other countries?

Yes. Of course most of those people aren't going to fight themselves. And it will take some time and more sanctions before they start to question the situation. With all the sanctions the life in Russia is still much better than at the beginning of 199x, and until that the Russians feel just fine finding satisfaction in resisting that "American attack on them". And don't forget that "Ukraine was with American help making nuclear and biological weapons to attack Russia".

I was too young to remember how was it in USSR and left Russia roughly 10 years ago. It's hard for me to believe in 75%, even considering state propaganda. Maybe things changed, I don't know.

We don't know how many people refused to answer.

Don't get me wrong, I think even 20% support is unacceptable, and my gut feeling tells me that it is higher than that. Just not 75%. However, sadly I agree that situation is bad and shock therapy may be necessary. We'll see if it helps.
