Do not let pro-Putin voices exploit current events to launder their own agenda.
You can be against American intervention without dismissing years of documented war crimes committed by the Russian state.

Since the beginning of Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, one in every seven schools has been destroyed or damaged.
Russia’s war crimes are documented fact and geopolitics is not a team sport. One country’s crimes do not cancel out another’s.
