Anyone? I posted one of my ideas a few days ago; Protesters releasing balloons with stacks of crime pics and data on what's really happening (beats getting arrested). The stacks of tiny 2 sided flyers would slip out of gentle knots awhile after the balloons are released blanketing the city (from hidden areas like behind buildings or perhaps fenced areas).
A majority of Russians still believe that Ukraine is mostly responsible for it all, that all these economic sanctions are Ukraine's fault. And they dont believe the rumors of criminal acts by putin. If a drumbeat of truth can somehow circumvent Putin's crackdown perhaps he can be stopped. This is what he's truly scared of right now.
How do they get the message to them. Any outside the box ideas? They really need to be OUTSIDE THE BOX in order to get through, right now the Russian people refuse to believe. But I don't think that should mean we give up
