He wasn't always like this, he was a normal person, a good comediant, but when great and heavy responsibilities come, you change with the times, and for this man, times have been hell. I don't want to be him, knowingly sending my troops and young people to die because of a (insert a bad word for Putin).

I bet many people, professional politicians, people with no principles that care only about money, would’ve run away leaving their country to suffer. This man had the strength to change and demand help for his own people, that makes him great honour.

If I remember correctly he was playing in a comedy as a guy who gets kinda accidentally elected, and based on the show he was kinda accidentally elected - half as a protest, half as a joke.

He ran for the office. What was accidental about it? Was it a joke campaign?

I don't know/remember many details of what I've read, but I think the campaign built a lot on the comedy show (there are a few short videos on YouTube with subtitles)
