How does the average Russian parent deal with losing their child in the war?
Like have they just been brainwashed over the decades to just accept it, or are they afraid to speak up to do anything, or are they silenced into speaking out, or something else or a combination of things?
I assume some people would double down on the necessity of war if their child died there. Like some kind of “the war was needed and correct, otherwise what did my child died for?”, you know? I would assume that the thought that your child died for nothing is too scary for some people.
I never thought of that, boy I hope some scumbag government never played into that kind of psychology
