We must do everything we can to stop this. Please try contacting three of your friends who you think will listen but don’t know what’s going on and let them know. Kremlin propaganda is trying to get us to fight each other and undermine the US. So far it’s been working but we have the power to stop it.

There are things we can do. Here’s a very simple action you can take that will help. Whenever you see Russian propaganda that violates the rules of whatever social media platform you are using click the report button. It takes just a few seconds of your time and if you are lucky it will get taken down.

Another thing you can do is education. Tell anyone who is reasonable and will listen about what’s going on.

Yes, this makes sense! Hopefully while doing so one could build a coalition that includes more and more people.

I kind of see your point there. My hope though is that maybe people could gain more empathy for each other by understanding that we are all human and I hope that one day people can understand each other’s struggles.

Yes, if that many people would do that it could make a huge difference

I feel this is really the most important answer here. We must break the false narratives that they use to hold power.

Yes, it’s better to move forward a little than to go backwards. When you move forward you can keep moving forward more later. If you move backwards you have to fight for what you lost before you can get more back.

The concerns are true but if people leave Twitter for Bluesky it’s still an improvement because Elon uses the algorithm to boost far-right content and he has your data.

This is a very important article. When talking to someone on the other side first find common ground. When having a conversation with someone both you and the other person must listen to and respect each other. Finding common ground before talking about your differences can be a great way to help achieve that.

That’s a good start. I would recommend also trying to form groups to pressure companies to no longer donate to republicans. Also work to get people away from misinformation platforms such as X and Fox News. I’m not in the EU but if you know anyone in there they could help with this petition: https://ban-x-in.eu/
