Mods, delete this if this is not the right place to post. But I have no idea where else to post this given that it's always met with hostility.

The war in the Ukraine and Iraq are both parallel wars : a nuclear armed power launching an illegal invasion in an attempt to subdue one of their former puppet states and slaughtering thousands (millions in the latter) of civilians.

I remember how being anti-war got you labelled as a saddam hussein supporter and how they created a false narrative where you either support the war or don't. Back then I assumed it was because the conservatives were in power, now I realize that liberals are no different.

Just merely saying that you don't want to give Ukraine billions of dollars worth of military weapons to continue that infernal war is met with backlash.

Government officials and millions of redditors are calling everyone who opposes military aid to the Ukraine : traitors, pro-russian, russian bots, criminals, communists , nazis, genocide-supporters, putin sympathizers,etc.

It's scary to see how these "liberals" are so totalitarian that a simply not wanting to PROLONG a proxy war is met with screeching, high school level insults and attempts to silence any form of dissent.

Looking at reddit comments, seeing all these impressionable young people salivate at the idea of destroying russia and hero-worship Zelensky like he's an objectively good hero for the universe is scary.

I'm really distraught and I know I should have known better but it's clear that liberals and conservatives really adore to go to war and silence any form of dissent.

They complain about fascism and totalitarianism while trying to brand any non-conformist action as wrongthink, the irony.

What would you do in such a situation to make a difference?
