1/8 You cannot simultaneously support Ukraine and vote for Trump. Voting for Trump means you are directly backing russia's interests Image
2/8 Take a moment to reflect on the statements made by Trump and his associates regarding Ukraine in recent months. They never blame russia for what is happening and only have negative things to say about Ukraine. He has chosen to surround himself with the worst people! Image
3/8 Trump goes so far as to avoid stating his support for Ukraine. He blames Zelensky for russia's invasion and aims to coerce Ukraine into an unwanted agreement that would benefit russia and its allies. Image
4/8 Trump not only holds pro-russian and entirely anti-Ukrainian views, but he is also a corrupt man who illegally kept classified documents at his home while covertly communicating with Putin. Image
5/8 Trump is also considering the possibility of withdrawing from NATO, which would undermine the West and negatively impact Ukraine in numerous ways. With him in power, many NATO countries may lose trust in Article 5 and be less able to support Ukraine than they were previously Image
6/8 The mental gymnastics some of you are engaging in to justify supporting Ukraine while voting for Trump are flawed, and you know it deep down. Image
7/8 russia is doing everything possible to ensure Trump's election in November, and there are clear reasons behind this. They recognize that having him back in office would significantly benefit their interests. Image
8/8 Sources:
Washington Post - Trump blames Zelensky for the war in Ukraine. He rarely blames Putin.

1/11 Why is Elon Musk pushing for civil war in the US and Europe?

This thread breaks down how Musk is using his platform, wealth, and influence to amplify far-right movements, incite political violence, and undermine democracy—across continents Image
2/11 Elon Musk is pushing for civil war in the West.

He’s not just amplifying far-right voices—he’s actively inciting political violence.

And he’s doing it with the power of X, his wealth, and global influence.

This is not just reckless. He’s out of control and dangerous Image
3/11 Musk openly supports far-right movements, including the most unhinged ones.

He praises nationalist leaders and criminals, boosts far-right parties in Europe, and appears alongside extremists like Tommy Robinson.

His rhetoric is increasingly militant and conspiratorial Image

1/6 Europe is already at war.

Russian drones have hit Poland, Romania, and Lithuania.

This is not just Ukraine’s fight.

The war is spreading. And it will keep spreading until Russia is stopped Image
2/6 Putin has tied his legacy and survival to the war in Ukraine.

Ukraine is not the final goal.
It is the first step.

Russia will escalate again and again unless it is defeated Image
3/6 Europe cannot just defend and wait.

Every time Russia escalates, it must pay a price.

That means long-range weapons for Ukraine, more aid, tougher sanctions, and seizing frozen Russian assets Image

1/5 Elon Musk has a clear civil war fetish and is recklessly exploiting Charlie Kirk’s assassination to incite political violence before the motives are even known.

He’s openly calling for violence against Democrats and must be held accountable Image
2/5 Before a suspect was identified and with no known motive, Musk blamed Democrats, spread false claims, and fueled conspiracy theories.

While Democrat leaders condemned the killing, Musk escalated division and refused to call for calm Image
3/5 Musk also amplified far-right voices in the UK, engaging with Tommy Robinson and his supporters, a figure too extreme even for Reform UK.

He pushed coup talk and inflammatory rhetoric, using Kirk’s murder as an excuse, while the killer's motives remain unknown Image

1/6 Political violence is a threat to democracy.

It exists on both sides — and it should never be accepted. But let’s be honest: calling it a “leftist problem” is dishonest.

The data shows it’s overwhelmingly a right-wing issue.

Let’s look at the facts👇 Image
2/6 Between 1990 and 2024:

🔹 Right-wing extremists responsible for ~85% of ideological killings (523 deaths)
🔹 Left-wing: ~15% (78 deaths)
🔹 From 2022–2024: 100% of extremist murders were committed by right-wing actors

Sources: CSIS, ADL, ECDB, Reuters

Ask Grok! Image
3/6 Real cases of violence against Democrats:
• Hortman murdered by man with a hit list of Democrats
• Pelosi’s husband attacked
• Trump supporter attempted to assassinate Gov. Shapiro
• Men convicted for trying to kidnap Gov. Whitmer
• Trump’s shooter? Registered Republican Image

1/7 Since returning to the White House, Trump has been buying time for russia in Ukraine.

He keeps stalling while pretending to act. It’s clear he won’t pressure russia.

But that extra time will end up hurting russia more than helping it Image
2/7 This delay is a gift to Putin.

Trump isn’t just doing nothing, he’s actively helping russia by refusing to act.

But time is not on russia’s side. The longer the war lasts, the more expensive it becomes Image
3/7 russia is overpaying soldiers to keep recruitment up and compensating families of the dead.

The numbers keep rising.

The longer the war drags on, the heavier the financial and human cost Image

1/5 No matter what you think of Charlie Kirk—political violence is never acceptable.

His assassination is a tragedy that will make the world worse.

It will deepen polarization, empower authoritarians like Trump, and fuel a dangerous cycle of retaliation Image
2/5 Trump, MAGA influencers, and even Elon Musk are already exploiting Kirk’s murder for political gain.

They’re using it to justify crackdowns, demonize opponents, and push the US further down an authoritarian path.

They are horrible people—just like Kirk was too Image
3/5 Kirk built his career on division, disinformation, and incitement. He called dissenters enemies, glorified guns, justified gun violence, and supported russia’s annexation of Ukraine. He spread lies to defend Putin and attack Ukraine.

I never agreed with him—and still don’t Image
