The Russian Intelligence Service Is Calling

Russian intelligence services may be reaching out to you, or even your kids, at this moment. Russia's objective is to create as much societal discontent and conflict as possible, leading to a breakdown of our society.
Jessikka Aro, a Finnish journalist, has been so severely attacked by Putin's Western supporters that she had to flee her native land. Now, having spent years researching how Russia uses its online actors to push global narratives, Arko explains why the threats from Putin's Russia are not lessening, but only increasing.
Aro is the author of Putin's Trolls, a best selling must-read on how Russia is trying to create chaos and panic in the West.

    Show your support for Ukraine, do not let fascism get a foothold in western society. Every voice is important so Ukrainians know we care! As a Dutch we know how important our rescue was by American and Canadian soldiers during WII. Slava Ukraine from the Netherlands

    Thank you Holland 🇳🇱 It's f'ing crazy, this far-right fascist bullshit happening around the world, intruding everyone's peace. I'm an American, clearly we have a real problem here. Just know that sane people like us, our sanity & tolerance for bullshit is being tested, pushed to the far limits by fascist, trumpist, rashist anti-Democratic LIES & WAR. My great-grandfather took an oath when he fought in WWI, and when I was a little boy he told me what it meant, to him, to be a good American/ free citizen/ person & it really shaped my entire worldview, 30+ years later, a direct quote: We Defend Democracy 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇳🇱🇨🇦🇬🇧🇪🇺🇦🇺🌎✊️

    Definitely. I see weird pro-trump posts directly on CNN videos, and I wonder, are there really that many real American trump supporters watching CNN all the time? NO! They watch Fox and other sources. SO those pro-trump posts on CNN are probably mostly from Russian-backed trolls. We must keep countering them, and freedom and truth can still prevail.

    our citizens dont trust the "mainstream media" wherever it still is more or less unbiased in other cases the media has proven its bias (in america only NPR seem to be sober and factual, in england BBC took a pro brexit side - not neutral) so, dummies turn to even worse social media sources and take all the shit there, pictures out of context, unproven statements as face value. finally someone who says what i want to believe.

    My father already called Russia the empire of lies. Putin calls Ukrainians fascists while acting as a fascist, he calls Americans imperialists while pursuing Russian empire. Putin tells Africans he is fighting colonialism while Russia maintains the last colonies in his neighborhood. Whenever Putin points his finger at others, three of his fingers point at him.

    Basically all governments and societies have done horrible things in the past, but some societies/governments have a significant portion of the population and leaders who are actively working to make up for past evils. It is a kind of national repentance. Those countries that show signs of national repentance and reform are on the right track. In contrast, the governments of Russia and other authoritarian countries are plunging themselves headlong into he*l.

Ms. Aro has some staying power to hang in there in the face of the abuse she received. It’s about time social media companies learn some social responsibility and removed these trolls/Fascists from our public discourse.

    Russian trolls are all over the Internet and you have to be a special kind of stupid to believe they’re crap. You can usually spot them by the time zones that they post from like in western countries or if you’re looking in their past threads it’s nothing but post about Ukraine so you can’t spot them you just gotta look a little bit deeper.

Working as I do to help communities to connect and to ensure that all people qualified get the chance to exercise their franchise, it seems that exposing the active measures taken against democracy through the targeting of marginalized groups is an opportunity to connect in truth and purpose between the minority and the majority.
