I imagine public opinion shaping is similar to and because of the NPC MSM propaganda I've witnessed in the Baltics.
It's pretty easy to see, they just took decades old hate towards the Soviet Union paired with nationalist sentiments towards citizenship then pumped up the hate rhetoric and wha-la, presto-chango the public went from just wishing Russian dissidents would assimilate into 1000% anti Russian everything.
The propaganda is damn effective if you can get NE Euro ppl to stop eating buckwheat, watching the Russian Comedy Channel, and pay upwards of 10x lp & diesel prices.
