Thinking out loud: I've got a sneaking suspicion about something & I'm curious what everyone else's thoughts are.

It has to do with these Westerners who appear to be #Kremlin sympathizers—especially the #Americans—and/or accounts appearing to belong to average Western people.

I think many of them are actually #Russian agents (or employees in one form or another) trying to create a false perception that 🇷🇺 has much more support among common people for its war of conquest in #Ukraine—and perhaps elsewhere if they succeed—than it does in reality.
2/ Image
Some of them—especially those living in or near 🇷🇺—give it away with poor English fluency and/or their particular accent, or at least suggest the possibility.

Among the "real" Westerners, including sincere ones—unfortunately—are the presumably larger portion of useful idiots.
