I'm a little surprised no one has mentioned the "Jews created proxies" trope.
Proxies have been utilized since the times of antiquity. A useful tool.
What the OP doesn't explain is the outcome in this case. Yes, Russia is on their heels and not one American soldier has lost his life due to this war. One of the main reasons for using proxies to destabilize a country.
The Pro Russian narrative doesn't bother to tell everyone that Russia utilizes proxies as a central pillar of it's foreign policy.
America using proxies= BAD!
Everyone else using proxies= GOOD!
The long game is working.
