It's ironic that you exactly prove your point by posting an outrage-farming video by someone with a clear political bias watching a video by someone else with a political bias (who misrepresents what people say and asks leading questions) rather than actual data. I will not discuss US politics as I am not American, it is off-topic and it will just lead to a ****-show, so consider this post in the vein of how to form evidence-based opinions, which has been a central point of discussion over the past few pages.
Here is an actual study on this topic. Note how they outline their methodology and openly discuss the limitations of the study. You are also free to decide for yourself if these are meaningful when spread out over the entire population (though you would really need to look more closely at local situations given the way the electoral system works).

Seriously guys, why are we (yet again) feeding the troll?
It's not like he has anything useful or even coherent to say, or is objectively considering counter points from various people, so... Why? 
It's just clutter, now. 
 

Wildberries is like the Amazon of Russia. It could be just a demonstration of what could happen, business as usual, or perhaps someone didn't get the memo about treading carefully. That would back up the quote above from the NYT about tensions over migration policy inside Putin’s security establishment.
 

Yeah, which is why I was interested in the origin of the conspiracy theory. If it started in Russia and becomes prevalent there, what does it say about Russians' trust in Putin's administration? If Gerashchenko and Nexta, who aren't exactly reliable sources, are feeding grist, then it is just icing.

It's possible you were confused for another poster whose name is five letters and starts with "kra", but that's just a theory.

Interrogating terrorist suspects on camera by the side of the road and posting it to Telegram just a few hours after the attack. They can clearly upload faster than they can drive.

They don't specify who paid him though.

More auto-targeting drones, including going after moving targets. In the first case, however, it switches targets at the last moment.

Six hours later and this twitter post has been deleted. From the link still showing (https://t.co/DmPZ389pGD) is this rebuttal
 

Ukraine is claiming another couple of Russian aircraft down, bringing the total claimed to 15. This is obviously contentious without confirmation, but this news about no Russian aircraft in the east of Ukraine for 4 hours for the first time since the war started is interesting if true.
UK MoD saying that the Russian A-50 fleet is likely grounded pending investigation into what led to a second loss.
 

This isn't the first mention I have see of war weariness in Russia, but I assume this guy moves in different circles to journalists ( https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/feb/24/war-and-peace-russia-soldiers-ukraine )

Very likely they have not heard these stories. I'm guessing your average westerner also knows very little about the nitty gritty of what is going on. Given India's relationship with Russia and based anecdotally on comments by Indians I have seen on various social media, I think a lot of Indians will have a different perception of Russia to ours.
A Canadian family with a youtube channel called Countryside Acres moved to Russia last year because they believe they are freer there to express their bigoted views but ran into some problems with banking rules. They posted a video complaining about this but rapidly deleted it and then issued a grovelling response saying they weren't really upset with Russia. Freedom!

What is so hard to believe? There is no shortage of stories of unscrupulous Indian "agents" scamming people by offering them lies about overseas positions. My country has deported victims of such scams, Russia puts them in front of missiles. It is a bit of a surprise that some of them managed to be discharged.

This is the best article on the A-50 situation I saw (it was written after the mid-January downing of one) - https://breakingdefense.com/2024/01/after-historic-shoot-down-why-russia-will-struggle-to-replace-its-a-50-aewc-plane/
According to it, the loss of the specialist personnel could be as significant as the loss of the plane.
