What we see here is a textbook case of reductionism. Because Fico opposes sending weapons to the proxy war in Ukraine, therefore he must be a Russian agent. Ergo, if Fico's party is leading in the polls, the Slovakian population must therefore be duped by Russian propaganda. No mention of Fico's party platform, or what the biggest issues to the electorate are. Everything is framed as a 'good vs evil' diatribe, where those that support bloodshed in Ukraine are good, and those who do not are evil. Pathetic.
