    I'm fucking exhausted. I can't say anything counter to the western narrative without being accused of consuming Russian propaganda or being pro Russia. Meanwhile my friends can run with "NATO is a defensive organization" and "it's clearly Russian propaganda to emphasize and exaggerate the role of Nazis in Ukraine".

    I don't argue with faceless people on the internet, but I do try and challenge my friends when dumb shit gets said. I'm starting to think if I want healthy relationships I just have to shut the hell up

      It's hard, I'm legitimately afraid to say anything and anyway my blood boils at the hypocrisy. People irl actually blame Russia for Trump, as if Trump was even close to the suffering the US has caused in the world under each and every Democrat president.

      I fucking hate smug liberalism so much, the fact checking, gaslighting, NPR brain idiots who think they are virtuous and intelligent by allowing neoliberals to program them toward hatred of The East. I've honestly just become too angry and righteous to reach anyone or change minds, and that's something I should work on for myself.

        It's perfectly human reaction to current fash-hysteria, time will heal it (well maybe with just a tiny-miny bit of your help).

      That's not a healthy relationship either. I know you shouldn't block out IRL friends flippantly, but never feel like you need to shut the hell up about being a moral person who actually gives a fuck for the benefit of others' comfort. If nothing else just don't forget that you are correct and if there is any moral arc to history, you will be vindicated

      Possibly but here’s some ammo if you haven’t seen it https://hexbear.net/post/183325/comment/2291016

      It’s kind of a smoking gun to my mind. Link to source vid is in the sub-comments. Zelensky and US plotted this whole thing.

      There’s a video of Lindsey Graham and John McCain in Ukraine in 2016 saying “Russia needs to pay a heavy price and we (US) will provide you with everything you need to win.”

      This is 100 percent a proxy war and the Ukrainian people - and Russian soldiers - are being sacrificed. Maybe some people think that is just and “worth it” and “cool” but make them say it.

      There's this video about the BBC reporting on Ukrainian Nazis pre-war vs during the war. Not sure if this will help.

      Yes. If you do want healthy relationships then you need to stfu about politics.

      If me and the boys are sitting around playin video games and drinking beer and smoking, the absolute last thing that ever needs to be brought up is politics. Don’t be that guy.

      Keep your personal convictions to yourself and be humble
