“Don’t worry about them.”
I think there’s reason to worry. I have never seen so many conservatives so easily swayed to support an evil cause (the Russian invasion) because of propaganda, ignorance and bad thinking and poor analytical skills. This does not bode well for the future of the United States or the conservative movement within it.
How do you know how many are ‘swayed’?
Everyone here is anonymous, and this space has always been full of trolls, sock-puppets, spooks, journalISTAS, etc.
Again, don’t worry - it’s not your job to worry about how other people appear to think.
Just express your own opinions on issues.
I’ve been saying this for weeks: I am baffled by the fact that otherwise rational and intelligent FReepers have become complete morons over this war. Suddenly, they have forgotten how to think, they no longer understand history, they’re okay with a foreign power invading a sovereign nation, they think it’s no big deal that Russians are raping children and murdering civilians, and they honestly believe that “Neo-Nazis” are in charge everywhere in Ukraine even though the president is Jewish.

***Yup. Well said. It is not a healthy situation.

I agree.
