Yeah. It was the beginning of the woke movement, really they claimed: Putin and Russia hate women. They hate homosexuals. They hate America. Our freedom. They censor and the people live in fear, etc.
They had a different message for every social group. Compare that to Afghanistan, while they hate gays there and behead soldiers we are force fed a narrative about how disenfranchised they are.
Edit: It’s all so blatant!
And I use to just write that off as oil, etc which I wasn’t happy with, but I at least understood to some degree as greedy bastards. But I think of it now as evil-l as I should have always I realize.
And Putin also got the Central Western banks out. That was the last straw for them
