Ordinary Russians in Russia (ones who did not move to Kiev in 2015 like bobuk@ or to Israel in 2022 like klm@) also dislike propaganda which is often blatantly and verifiably false ("denisova site:theguardian.com"), and comes from adversary of their country.

I imagine that's why Yandex demotes all the stuff coming from certain Russian-language news outlets.

You can be against war without lying or throwing a fit, but I don't know a single news source doing that. I know a lot of propaganda outlets, though. Having that choice, people (and Yandex) usually choose propaganda from their side.
