Support Ukraine.
Recognise the differences between state, country and people.
Discuss the distortions of truth as you see them. No one owns the whole truth and evil can perpetuate itself everywhere.
Be kind. Try to move the argument forward.
Putin and his sivoliki are evil warmongers, killers, and the momentum of their war is going in the wrong direction for everyone. If there is one way we can all prevent the growth of hatred, it is to fill our own worlds with as much love as possible.
Speak plainly, but try to defuse anger. Anger makes us blind and deaf; listen and observe and express. Untangle your thoughts and feelings. Explain, disagree, debate but don't explode and destroy.
Be friends with those people who most clearly oppose your opinion; who knows what you will learn from each other.
Context is all. Where you have knowledge, please share it.
Comment, add, agree, disagree.
