"When will you get tired of lying?" Kamchatka residents disagreed with the governor, who wrote a bravura post about the start of the war.

"It's been exactly two years since Kamchatka, as one, united and supported the Russian President's decision to conduct a special military operation."- wrote Vladimir Solodov on his Telegram channel. He also noted that the region had "added territories under its patronage."

The channel's comments section is open, and those who disagree with the governor immediately began expressing their opinions. They expressed outrage that Solodov was speaking for everyone and also asked why Kamchatka needed sponsored territories when its own villages were dying out.

Soon, the "patriots" and an army of bots arrived. The governor's post garnered over 400 comments, though it usually only gets a few dozen.
