It worked before, why wouldn't it work again? They just ruined it by attacking ukraine, which united Europe. It wasn't even that long ago, surely people should remember?

Same. I was starting to wonder if the anti-Russian sentiment wasn't a lingering feeling from the Cold War that had overstayed its welcome propped up by American media, and they were getting better... Then Russia invaded Crimea and dispelled all doubt

That isn't an absolute statement, we are much more united than before. There will always be conflict in politics and some might be against it, if it hurts their bottom line.
