Propaganda can be a hell of a drug. Just look at the Russians and kyiv during the literal opening shots of the war. They were told and hyped up that the Ukrainians would be welcoming them with open arms and they even brought along their parade uniforms expecting a quick victory...well reality sunk in when in a way Ukraine did welcome them with arms, just not the kind Russia expected.
