Speed demon 🇪🇺 🇳🇴🇺🇦🇵🇸Sep 5, 2023
Just now a "useful idiot" for #Putler drifted across my timeline, from a hashtag I follow.
Rapid succession of emotions:
- Fight! Debunk! Save the fediverse!
- Fatigue, am I prepared to take them on? Do I have the arguments and the stamina?
- Sorrow. Is all hope gone for reasoning with that other side?
(For context: that other side is the "stop arming Ukraine, vote green party in US election).
- Confusion. Do I block and move on? Do I alert somebody? Any #fella s out there with advice? 1/2

2/2 When I looked at the wikipedia-article for the org. the poster is supporting, the illustration was a banner that said "Those who sacrifice liberty for security deserve neither" (Ben Franklin), and they argue for stopping the Ukrainian freedom-fight to have peace ("security") in Ukraine! (Insert reply-guy-emoji here. Yes. I'm that low)

I am of two minds when it comes to naming and shaming right now. So, please convince me either way. Name&Shame? Block? Tell them off?
