1/5 Elon Musk is attacking Wikipedia after failing to buy it in order to turn it into a Kremlin propaganda machine (he really doesn't want you to verify facts!) Image
2/5 Elon Musk has once again criticized Wikipedia and urged his followers to stop donating to the platform. He previously made an offer to purchase Wikipedia, and it seems that offer is still on the table. Image
3/5 Musk seems determined to hinder Americans' ability to easily verify facts or access information. He appears willing to do whatever it takes to make many Americans even more unaware than they already are. Image
4/5 Now is the perfect time to donate to Wikipedia to ensure it remains as it is and doesn't get purchased by a far-right oligarch who would transform it into a Kremlin propaganda tool. Image
5/5 Sources:
NY Post - Elon Musk urges supporters not to donate to Wikipedia after it spent $50M on DEI: ‘Wokepedia’
The Economic Times - Elon Musk’s $1 Billion Offer to Wikipedia Still Stands Image

1/8 Is Trump finally shifting his strategy on russia’s war in Ukraine? Image
2/8 Fifty-one days after Ukraine accepted Trump’s unconditional ceasefire, and after fifty-one days of russia increasing its bombings of Ukraine instead of accepting it, Trump has finally started to blame russia a bit Image
3/8 It’s good to remember that Trump has a habit of blaming russia and using mild threats against them on social media every few weeks, without making any real changes behind the scenes. Will this time be any different? Image

1/7 Are we finally done with the useless post-war peacekeeper talk? The war in Ukraine is not about to end. Let’s focus on helping Ukraine now instead of on hypothetical post-war scenarios! Image
2/7 European leaders such as Starmer and Macron seem to be finally moving away from the useless talk on post-war peacekeepers. This subject may become important one day, but we are not anywhere close to that yet Image
3/7 Starmer and Macron wasted months talking about post-war peacekeepers in a war that’s not about to end, while Trump tried to throw Ukraine under the bus. Ukraine needs our help now more than after the war! Image

1/5 What russia is doing in Ukraine constitutes a genocide. If you disagree, you either don’t know the definition of genocide or are unaware of the facts of russia’s war on Ukraine Image
2/5 Genocide involves acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group. This includes examples such as forcibly transferring children of the group to another group, among other acts Image
3/5 russia justifies its invasion of Ukraine by denying Ukraine’s existence as a state. It aims to erase Ukrainian statehood, identity, culture, and traditions, while also rewriting history and kidnapping Ukrainian children. These actions make russia’s war on Ukraine a genocide Image

1/9 When someone shows you who they are, believe them: a few quotes from russian officials and propagandists that we should stop ignoring and start taking seriously Image
2/9 Vladislav Surkov, a powerful ex-Kremlin strategist, recently said ”russia will expand in all directions, as far as God wills.” Putin has echoed similar sentiments. russian officials and propagandists have made their intentions clear—it’s time we take their threats seriously! Image
3/9 Many were surprised by russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine because they dismissed russian threats as mere rhetoric. Ignoring these warnings has proven costly—russia’s genocidal actions show their threats must be taken seriously Image

1/7 Donald, wake up! Lavrov’s newest demands are unrealistic and prove that russia does not want peace. If Trump fails to pressure russia now, he never will! Image
2/7 When running for president, Trump said that he would pressure russia if it refused to negotiate and stop the war. Those were empty words, as russia has been playing Trump for months, and Trump hasn’t done anything! Image
3/7 Every few weeks, Trump makes a social media post to act angry at russia and make some very mild threat without following through. How long will he be able to do that? Image

1/11 Why russia is losing the unprovoked war it started in Ukraine: a few key points to remember and use Image
2/11 If we had been told in March 2022 what the situation would be like over three years later, we would have been amazed and seen the current outcome as a significant Ukrainian victory and massive defeat for russia Image
3/11 russia started an unprovoked war on Ukraine that it cannot win due to unreachable stratetic goals. Combined with Trump’s lack of pressure on Putin, russia has no incentive to stop its invasion. By prolonging the war, russia avoids admitting a stratetic defeat Image
