Russian term

«засвидомичены»

Russian to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Добровольческие батальоны – это ни для кого не секрет – очень сильно «засвидомичены». Когда отбивали 32-й блокпост, то у одного пленного спросили, зачем он пришел сюда. Говорит, лучше пулю в лоб, чем семь лет в тюрьме сидеть.

made overly conscientious

I.e. 'brainwashed'

«Свидомый» (саркастично, с политической коннотацией) вместо «сознательный» (об украинских патриотах).

patriotically conscious

'Patriotic' is a connotation here, I believe. As a variant, 'politically' can be used.
Note from asker:
Alexandria, thank you so much for your very helpful explanation. I simply opted for Oleg's response since he was super-fast, and I needed the answer rather quickly. Many thanks once again. Apologies for my delay in thanking you.
