That's the point as the people are enabling the government
If Donald Trump wins the Presidency illegitimately, will you say the same of US citizens?
So, in a country where the elections are clearly a sham, and have been for decades, it's the people's fault, is that what you're saying?
I couldn't roll my eyes at this bullshit any harder.
Firstly, Putin has decent support in spite of the elections being a sham.
Secondly, there's literally nothing else you can do to make a regime change happen from the outside. Except war, which no one wants.
So keep rolling your eyes in ignorance.
That is very easy to say when you are not a dissident living in one of these countries.
Literally why I used the US as an example.
EDIT: Also, you're literally reducing their access to non-Propaganda media sources.
Did you just call western media for non-propaganda? Dude, it's working then.
Don't dissidents want regime change to happen more than they want Netflix?
So what would you suggest then?
