    U.S. is defending itself when it is helping Ukraine.
  • @AnP865
    Countries like Finland that are more experienced with KGB and subsequent Russian "active measures" have dedicated media spots and other public programs that help people identify and disprove this kind of thing. It's actually pretty effective, there are various articles about it.
  • @Infodumptruck
    Russian propaganda works great on real Tylers too, so it helps with believability
  • @gagaplex
    I'm honestly shocked we let this issue grow to this insane degree.
  • @maru4361
    One way to weed them out is reply to their comments ‘Russia is losing. Putin is weak.’
  • @MlLKMAN
    Thank you for making this video. The content is spot on. As a person who' speaks English as a second language I became really good at identifying these trolls. Learning American slang that continously changes is more challenging than learning English. This makes the job of these trolls even more difficult. The other mistake I see them make is when pretending to be a blue collar white guy from the south who is expressing a strong opinion on a subject related to russia or Ukraine that this person normally would have zero knowledge or interest to learn about. Trolls have personalities, a way of speaking that can be identified after reading a handful of comments made by the same person. It can be amusing to trigger these guys😅
  • @ChadwickTheChad
    Lol - they better save their money for something more important, like food and medical equipment for when their nation collapses.
  • @DSAK55
    Youtube does nothing to weed them out, BUT they will ban you for "spam"
  • @TheDickieP
    It’s also rife across British Facebook pages. If you do a bit of a dive into any of the ‘patriotic British’ pages it’s obvious who’s backing them
  • @sliversandsparks
    I feel sorry for Russian and Ukrainian People who are caught up in this mess all because of Putin . 🇨🇦
  • Chat AI is going to make this so much worse. Even today you can ask ChatGPT to write a generic negative comment against any argument, with perfect grammar, no concern for truth and no moral qualms. I imagine this is the main thing the Chinese-developed knock-off was built for.
  • @Infodumptruck
    When that election was going on i had a feeling something was off. I couldn't explain why people were suddenly so aggressive and hostile. I figured it was social media related, but after learning about the interference it made perfect sense. And I'm one of the people that stopped paying attention to the news for a while because it was so stressful, which was why I didnt see Covid coming when previously I wouldve been on top of that stuff
  • @mr.normalguy69
    The fact that Russia (Putin in this case) is doing all this, just to gain some negligible upper hand tells me that they're desperate. Really Desperate.
  • @kevinmullner4280
    This video should be mandatory in all schools of the free world. And beyond. Very well done. Subbed and belled.
  • @wyattdean5192
    Dude this is so important, thank you for making this video, I notice a lot of older people fall for the Russian comments, websites etc
  • @kalloh5519
    This is a great issue the West needs to tackle
  • @user-xq5zc6bc7x
    they are also targeting non english speakers. found many videos full of comments with "bad" german. for sure they also do this in french italien etc. Maybe easy to distinguish as someone who is aware, but i can imagine that it works with quite alot of people.
  • The whole idea of Russia “de-Nazifying” Ukraine is laughable… if Ukraine are nazis, it’s an odd thing for them to elect a Jewish comedian as their representative leader. Say what you will about comedians, Selenski will be remembered for his stern leadership and bravery after this is all done. He has been more decisive and presidential than anyone else would have expected. The man deserves recognition and a place in history for his role in saving his country and his people from this horrendous war.
