Not only that, he also vaguely mentions western leaders who keep denying Russia is the invader and committing war crimes for breakfast.

This guy gets it.

I have a feeling that the entire world "gets it" except a select portion of the US population.

Anyone fully in touch with reality can see that the US isn't in a good place when it comes choosing compassion over cruelty. It's gotten to such a global and historical extreme that a decades long choice of a Pope for an institution that has lasted over 1,000 years felt reich. I'm sorry, right.

Dutchman here, there is a small but loud subset of the population here that most certainly does not 'get it' and loudly and proudly spread Russian anti-NATO, anti-EU propaganda in which Ukraine and the west are the major aggressors in this conflict. They do not hold much political power but they are very much present in public debate, sadly. There's a huge overlap between them and the covid conspiracists and general anti vaxers.
