I’m really unsure why people take it as fact that defending Ukraine definitely means nuclear war with Russia. We’ve seen an emperor who has no clothes over the past couple of weeks.

I think that people really need to try to understand better how Putin used Twitter to push absurd stories like the Reade rape claim and so many others to try to influence voters. Today, we heard how silly Putin's propaganda sounds in real time as he pushed his Ukraine nazi lies.
But why were so many people fooled by Reade's equally silly rape claim? #1 is because they wanted to be. #2 is because they didn't know how to be the person who says that this rape claim makes zero sense. There was a real backlash against those of us who saw it for what it was.
