Totally agree. When we have the chance we can build international solidarity too, though. Unionizing across national borders, keeping our associations strong through family, friendship, professional, etc. relations, practicing what mutual aid we can from afar.... And, of course, fighting our own anti-war battles in our own locations.
Anyway, I'd rather connect as meaningfully as possible with other leftists in Russia and figure out how we can help that way than to just assume people in Russia don't know jack and try to educate them from afar about their own situation. The latter is not only incredibly patronizing, but I suspect it'll be ineffective and pointless. Gotta know what you're stepping into.
When you're Russian that's the right thing to do. When you're American you don't protest Russia, you protest NATO. This is how to antiwar
