I hear that all the time, "but what about the challenges of polling under an autocracy?", as if they were the first one to think about it.

But if you show alternative methodologies that account for preference falsification and the estimates for preference falsification turn out to be low, you never hear back from people.

But this approach is understandable, people in the west have a very primitive understanding of russian culture and russian constantly code switch when pushing polemics for western audiences and when speaking in russian.

I can not 🤷🏻‍♀️that is why I asked, would be nice finding reputable sources that leak outta there

But "look at any research” does not imply good sources..

I mean I did suggest you go to Levada, Russian Field and LSE List Experiment research on the extent of russian support for the war.

All these research series are very easy to search for online. This is not secret or paywalled research.
