The poll found that a majority of Americans want the US to pursue diplomatic negotiations to end the war as soon as possible.

    lmao you can propagandize people for a while but eventually it always stops working and the population returns to the mean (in this case, apathy).

    Then again, I haven't seen as much propaganda recently, so maybe once they got their billions of dollars of weapons purchased they eased off the pedal and that's why we're returning to the mean.

      I think some of the problem is that 80% of Americans could not find Ukraine on a map.

      The other problem is that both sides of the war are white people.

      This is a bad combination if you want to enthrall the American public. Any war that fits these criteria are among the least interesting wars to Americans. For example Yugoslavia

      You can only do so much to convince people a financial crisis is worth a cause that's thousands of kilometers away
