Because Russia has done a tremendous PR job, especially in the alternative media space.

I'm surprised the fact that alternative / MAGA / heterodox / IDW (however you want to describe them) podcasters like Dave Rubin and Tim Pool take large amounts of money from anyone, let alone Russia, hasn't created more noise. Their reason for being is that they are supposed to give an honest assessment unlike the corrupt corporate media.

But anyway, in the alternative media space Putin is just doing what nature intended, the Dems are the real warmongers, something something NATO and if we stop sending weapons to Ukraine there will be no more homeless people.
