Marillion FEAR

The only thing I know is that Russian politics kept presenting new facts, all of which eventually clashed, made no sense and were all refuted. If they had nothing to do with it, why did they try so hard to construe something?

I've heard of somebody who was on vacation in Russia and came back feeling hate for the Ukraine just because there is so much propaganda on Russian media. "Why is nothing ever true?" may refer to information becoming easier to fake and harder to verify.

As for everybody hating Russia... this wasn't the case five or six years ago and from what I can see, Russian politicians can blame themselves for that. You don't just go annex part of another country! Not saying "the West" has been doing great things all the time (invading Iraq was very stupid) but if there will ever be a Judgement day, somebody will have a lot to answer for...

OK maybe I was being too general. The 'new' Ukrainian government was repeatedly called 'fascist' on Russian media. The fact that Janucovich didn't care about his people and instead directed a lot of money into his own pockets was seemingly as irrelevant as what Assad is doing in Syria. Well, in my opinion you can also lose the right to lead a country if you do certain things against your own people. Also Putin is on record as saying that the end of the Soviet Union was a terrible mistake. I think most of those countries that gained their independence in the 90's will disagree with that...
