It is all cause and effect.
The population was not this way before the change in government. People had their disagreements, and of course nobody liked the corruption, but other than a minority of extreme nationalists the country was not so divided.
Once you realize this everything else makes sense. They are reacting to Kyiv and the threat they feel from them.
I will ask the same question I keep asking (and have only so far had one person respond to).
Why does the Kyiv government continue to incorporate Right Sector and Svoboda (neo-nazi leaders) into their executive positions. They head the Military, State Security, and the Attorney General. These are VERY powerful positions. It would have greatly calmed things to have replaced these positions with people that were not extremists. Why is Kyiv so intent on embracing extremists?
