Now my impression is anyone who is a victim of Russian propaganda can be called a vatnik despite the article saying the word is used mostly in Russia.

    I agree. At first Vatnik was only used for lower- and uneducated-classes and low ranking meat, wearing cotton-jackets. Now Vatniks can be even billionaires and the elites of a society, like Musk and Peter Thiel.
