Its part to do with how communism works there. Your status, income and livelihood is all "given" to you by the state. Im guessing most there are teetering between is this a temporary thing or not. Will this war end and things slowly go back to normal with Vlad and his cronies still running things? If so, youre scared not to support them because youd lose your job, your swanky apartment with AC and Wifi and even your limited freedoms if he state wanted to take them.
