"Land for peace" guys really try to convince us that - 1. The blue country needs to give the red one more land - adding a total of 0.6% to the latter. 2. The same regime that dumped nearly 500k of its people for 0.6% extra land can somehow negotiate rationally. Do you

If it weren't for social media, I'd have almost no idea what's happening in Georgia. The coverage is minimal at best. Brave people are risking everything for democracy. They need our support. Their voices must be amplified. We must seize this moment. #Georgia

If Ukraine wins, the war ends. If russia wins, the war escalates 1000x. If you're "anti-war", "anti-WW3" or "pro-peace", the only logical path is backing Ukraine to end the war here and now. It really is that clear.
Ukraine's far-right gets almost no votes unlike France, Germany, the US & UK but Ukraine is the one with the problem? Next time you want to lecture Ukraine on democracy, fascism etc, just focus inwardly first.
People saying Zelenskyy is a "puppet" - 1. He didn't bow to Trump's extortion 2. He didn't bow to Biden, Scholz etc saying not to strike russia & its oil sector 3. He couldn't be bought by putin, unlike so many Western politicians 4. He didn't flee & take sheltered exile abroad

Notice russia's silence after Ukraine's devastating strike in Tver. Compare that to how loudly they threaten when the West is about to increase support. Understand that Ukraine's strength terrifies them; Western weakness emboldens them. Stop letting them dictate our policy.
putin - I want a ceasefire & peace talks putin 1 day later - I'm gonna bomb a hypermarket in Kharkiv Sullivan - let's protect russia & negotiate with this guy. This is what failure looks like.

I've noticed many Hamas supporters using this lady as their hero. 1. She's in Georgia, THE COUNTRY, not the US. 2. She's not at an anti-West pro-Hamas rally. 3. She's protesting russia, Hamas' ally. She's PRO-WEST. She is a true queen. Just not yours.

Interesting that Ukraine's regular attacks on russia's oil industry, deep inside russia, have also become quietly normalised. Neither the kremlin nor Western media is screaming about WWIII anymore. Ukraine's long range strikes were never a problem. I hope that's clear now.
66k fake accounts & 10 million fake followers were removed. That's TikTok alone & just for Romania's election. Multiply that across all the countries & elections russia is actively trying to manipulate. That's the scale of what we're up against on these platforms.
