Im getting the same pushback. I dont know what age group predominates in your peer group but Im in my late 50s and those people I associate with in my generation and older have all fallen back into a cold war mentality very easily. Even those people who are two time Trump voters and unvaxxed. My dad is mostly awake but now thinks Putin will invade Poland and the rest of eastern Europe. Very frustrating.
My Dad is 75, I had kunch with him today. Putin was the first topic. When I said, Putin may not be wrong in this attack he became visibly angry. Wanting Putin dead. He is a Trump supporter, but still watches Foxnews.
I didnt try to redpill too much, it was too diffficult for him to hear. But I did say I distrust our own govt as much as Putin. He seemed to understand that.
Sounds exactly like my Mom. She is 81, Trump supporter and also a Foxnews viewer. I have to just stop talking to her about this stuff because it’s very frustrating.

I also told him the media speaks only lies.
We cannot tell them, they must be shown.

Relatable.
There are some of us pushing back, but we have a massive uphill battle. First generation to grow up with th internet, iPhone, social media, etc.
Yup. My fiancee believes all my China Virus info. Russia is a step too far. Very frustrating.
