Sounds plausible, Russia’s invasion of Georgia didn’t seem like a big deal to me back then. Same as Russia’s first invasion of Ukraine in 2014. Media failed me in each of those cases. I feel like i’m having less blind spots as i get older, but i’m obviously still not fully there yet.
I think we’re seeing the same reaction as when Russia invaded Georgia in 2008. Basically “oh no this is not okay. anyway…”.
