“I’d say the pro-Putin people are nearly irrelevant.”
to me, they’re pretty obvious russian trolls, and i simply ignore everything they say or post ... in fact, i pretty much ignore ALL FR commentary about the russian war and simply read the posted articles and make up my own mind ...
the FR commentary reminds me of a pair of children who just repeat “he started it”, “no he started it” over and over and over and over again and again and again ...
Mostly agreed. Point has been made that we have a lot of isolationists on FR these days, and I’d say a good number of these are so extreme in this, plus those with little sense of history or simply blinded by the outrages of the left here in the US, that they lose sight of what ol’ Pooty really is, or what the much longer term problem we have with the Russian power structure is and how we solve it. And... Do they really like a future composed of a Russia / China / Iran / maybe India axis and chaos (likely nuclear chaos) most everywhere else not controlled by said axis?
That said, my statement about irrelevance was really about those who are or appear pro-Putin as a % of the electorate in general.
As far as really interesting goes, this Russian dissident is quite a bit more so:

If Putin generates some more of this guy...
