Read it carefully:

Are you pro-Russia or not?

The answer's going to be "pro-Russia"

Are you pro war or peace?

The answer is going to be "peace"

The wording is extremely important. I'm not saying the polling is fake, I'm not saying that results are wrong.

I'm saying that you need to look at the question and really think what it's about.

Mind you, my source, and your source's source is literally the same Levada. The same series of questions. The same numbers.

Again. You are arguing that the "wording is extremely important" but then misrepresent what the question actually was. Can you at least pretend to argue in good faith or is this all you have?

Then explain how exactly am I misinterpreting it?

And why is your interpretation better? Considering your source failed to mention the question and falsely attributed it to "special military operation" support (I explained how that's incorrect in the first comment)

Also, explain how am I arguing in bad faith? I'm trying to explain my position, yet you aren't giving me yours, choosing to essentially only say that I'm wrong. Isn't that a bad faith argument?
