    My guess is that they think it's a geopolitical version of the whole "these protestors are outside agitators who came from a different state to cause anarchocommunistfascist chaos" thing that various people said during the BLM protests. Just flood Crimea or the Donbass with like a hundred thousand Russians and then when The Plan is ready, make them all simultaneously Yearn For Freedom so Russia can go "Ah, fiiiine, we'll help I guess!"
