Anonymous reader (RF). I was 14 years old when the war started. At first I supported her.
At school, after the start of the war, my class was told that all this was necessary to protect the people of Donbass from genocide – and of course Russia to protect itself from NATO threatening its borders.
The worldviews between “those who support” and “those who oppose” are radically different. They live in different worlds. It seems that “those who support” live in a matrix, not in reality. But then I believed everything we were told. For some time I was in favor of “Special Operation”. I entered the matrix.
But then, I stumbled upon a YouTube video about Russian propaganda. And no, I didn’t get up and shout, “I have seen!” But I realized something very important: everything my country says may not be true. Yes, at the age of 14, this was a huge revelation for me.
And the world collapsed. This was not a period of insight, but of doubt. I just don’t know who or what to believe now. But I think even that was actually very important. The revolution has begun in my head.
Of course, then I found out what had happened and it was actually happening. I left the matrix. And all my colleagues who still support”SVO“, is still in it.
