Well...they tried. What else would you call it when western backed NGOs organize astroturfed protests and violent riots aimed at toppling the elected government because the government is trying to pass a law that would expose foreign funding of said NGOs?

Well typically a revolution would require a change in the status quo, not a protest against the government rapidly shifting policy.

They aren't trying to create a revolution, they are trying to preserve the status quo. The reason they are upset is because it's the same policy Orban used before cracking down on independent journalism.

NATO troops have been in Ukraine since 2014

Lol, invited of course. That's not invading someone...

Ukrainian troops have been on Russian territory since 2022 when the new oblasts voted in a referendum to join Russia.

Lol, and now it's okay for foreign governments influence voting.....

Color revolution bad, Russia funding and arming separatist groups all over eastern Europe good.

Them doing so forced Russia to intervene to protect those people and as a result there is now a larger conflict in Ukraine.

Those people Russia armed and agitated against the government in the first place? How many of Russia's neighbors actively have armed separatist regions being bolstered by Russian troops? Surely it's just a coincidence, and surely Russia has a long history of being very empathetic towards minority groups.......

Comparing Palestinians with Nazis who want to commit ethnic cleansing is grotesque genocide apologetics and literally a Zionist talking point.

My dude, you are literally repeating nationalist talking points. Maybe take your own advice and consume sources that aren't funded by the Russian state.

This shows to me that you are not engaging in good faith

I very much doubt you ever engage with anyone in good faith.
