There was a post from a mass media site the other day saying Turkey was approving Sweden to join NATO. This turned out to be a bit of wishful thinking.

Your comment is really weird. You are arguing about something the person you are replying to didn’t even say.
They didn’t say most Russians agree with the war. They also didn’t say Russians are zombies or pawns.
All they said was that Russian (Soviet union) leaders have a history of sacrificing their own citizens. That’s an undeniable fact.
And stating that is in no way xenophobic.
In my view, the comment implies that Russia invading Sweden is a decision that falls solely on Putin’s will. How is that not something that reduce russians to pawns or zombies, or them being ok with whatever war their leader instructs? They are invisible to the commenter, and that’s disturbing to me, honestly.
Of course Putin is unable to start yet another war. He’s only partially getting away with Ukraine, and even with years of planning and propaganda, he’s struggling to stay in it, and is relying heavily in straight up mercenaries who may or may not be russian, they’re just hired assassins.
It’s probably ChatGPT.
