Can lead a horse to water but can’t make them drink.
It’s not your responsibility to save people. Jesus said lead by example. Didn’t say, go around forcing views down peoples throats they don’t want to consume.
If Putin cares so little about Ukrainians, why is he taking so long to flatten the cities just as the US flattened Fallujah? The Russians could do it in a few hours just with bombers and conventional missiles. They have the capacity.
Instead, they keep the electrical grid and the other utilities up, there isn't even a communications blackout AFAiK
Do you know, I just can't work that out. Maybe your dad can explain it.
That's great. I'm sure, however, that this will be a very hard time to discuss difficult to explain topics when he is already dealing with his own crisis. Consider holding off on the heavier conversations until he has some grieving time, unless he brings it up. It's hard to lose a beloved pet.
That was a very interesting post and a good explanation of the baffling nature of some of the people in our lives. What do you think it is that makes "us" different ? i.e. not hypnotized by the programming?
They have to see the lies for themselves, and get angry on their own that they were lied to. But you presenting evidence now is arguing and hardening their stance. Be glad you succeeded in some important ways. Rule of conflict avoidance: don't argue, don't belittle, and don't agree. I know the last sounds counter intuitive but it keeps you free.
It really is amazing how I have friends who were questioning the whole plandemic narrative for the past 2 years just flip like a switch when the tail wagged the dog.
You have to remember people born very early 80's back into the 60's grew up when Russia wad the big bad wolf. I have to admit, it took me until late last year to question the idea that maybe Russia isn't what I was "taught". It's some amazing multi-decade programming.
Right now, we are concerned of exposing children to all the things the left is doing because they are young and impressionable. Now, take a few generations (Elder Millennial, X, Boomers, etc) where a lot of our young impressionable years we were taught Russia was bad and had a finger on the nuke button with a bad temper. Give us a chance to reconcile that with what we know now....got some reprogramming to do.
I was born in 81 and I was worried about nuclear bombs for quite a few years of my young years. Maybe those born 3-4 years after me may remember it, but I remember it quite well. Russia has been the bad guy from at least the 1940's on.
I finally convinced my mom not to get the booster. It wasn't easy. Right after that she got the Flu shot! And last time I visited her she had 2 masks on! The cheap graphene oxide mask from China covered by a N95 mask. And we were outside.
If his dog is dying, he is probably overcome with sadness. Maybe his mind cannot accept any new ideas at this time.
Ask him if lies were used to start the war in Iraq. Y'know, did we ever find the weapons of mass destruction? What about Afghanistan. Bush said he would provide proof that bin laden did 911. Did he ever give us that proof?
What about Syria? Did they lie about the use of chemical weapons?
Oh and uhh do you remember Hunters laptop from hell. Didn't that have some Ukraine stuff?
If your dad is religious, ask him if its Russia or if its Ukraine that has taken the role of godless sex fiends.
Advice - don't push him too hard but ask him to be open to being deceived on what is really happening between Russia and Ukraine. I'd also ask him to look up the Azov Brigade patch and have him compare that to patches from the SS "Das Reich" and "Nazi Black Sun" and have him look up Azov Brigade crucifixion video. Maybe those will open his eyes a little. You don't have to take the position of supporting Putin in order to point out the bad guys on the Ukraine side. You may also want to ask him what he would think the US response would be if China made a pact to arm Mexican drug cartels on the US/Mexico border.
Yeah I see my awoke family not sure what to believe even though I have spelled out what is actually happening. Oh well! You can take a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
just an idea, maybe your dad is secretly a satanist? i've lived your exact story multi times in the last year (it sucks, but the truth can hurt) ..... once you get too close to the truth, the secret holder shuts down and attacks the truth (you). could be guilt, fear, or realization that they fucked up big time and NCSWIC.
Don’t try to make him ingest the truth. Redpill him drop after drop until he wants to research the matter further by himself. That’s like preaching.

Sorry to hear this!
Maybe his subconscious has started work on the Ukraine situation. It's always there reassessing stuff quietly.
so sorry about the dog man, that really sucks :(

Ask questions they can't answer. REAL questions, not rhetorical questions.
"Yeah I know Putin's a thug, but why invade now? The last time they did it was in 2014....right?"

Tell him that Hillary, Obama, bill Gates, Nancy Pelosi and The fake News are all on his side this time.
How people can believe anything they say is just insane to me.
How many boosters has you dad gotten?

I don't think you're wrong.
I'll be honest, I started questioning the whole Russia, Russia, Russia thing last year and started asking myself why am I thinking this way.
Let us old folks deprogram ourselves!

It's ok. Once he awakens, its over. He will know.

So he believes Iraq had WMD's after all?
Show him this. https://youtu.be/OIW-IacnviQ
I guess you take after your mom?

I was out and about today and saw a vendor on the sidewalk selling t-shirts with the Ukraine flag on them. At least no one was there buying them.
