Anyone got any more material? There's someone I need to convince that Russia is actually evil and that it's not just them responding to the west/nato and that the Ukrainian war was unjustified
People tend to respond poorly to facts when they've made up their minds. Good luck!
It's moreso indoctrination from their country of origin
Yeah I had a magat try to fight me the other day
Russians have been jailed for posting about this:

Shown them that one. Would maybe show it again to keep hammering in the point.
Or maybe they're just too susceptible to Russian propaganda, it seems to seep deeply into the psyches of some people- most (from my perspective) it's the conspiracy, anti Vax, "the whole world is against me" type people.
unfortunately I've had to let those friendships go
Or it's the "my government is always right and I don't question the things they are showing me" people
