Hello, I am from Ukraine. I’m trying to use my LinkedIn in order to spread the truth about the war that is going on right now. During the last few days, I started to see how many Russian LinkedIn profiles were posting weird shit - online propaganda about the Russian-Ukrainian War. And as I have a wide network, my friends get angry about it - they start to comment and populated my feed with notifications.

\
First, let me be honest. A few days ago, I got reported on LinkedIn by some Russian dude - he posted congratulations to the russian tyrant about the annexation of Crimea. And I’m not very stable right now, so I commented on his post with a few things that I’m not proud of. And what do you think - he reported me and I got a notice from Linkedin.

\
Today, I got a notification about one post of Russian developer that trying to relocate. He was using the new nazi sign that put\*n invented a month ago. I tried to report him to LinkedIn for inappropriate behaviour and started to battle with Linkedin about its rules.

\
Below I’m attaching a message from Linkedin:

In a few hours, I start to get comments from other people that have the same results.

\
People are trying to report the same dude. Same post and nothing…..

People are also reporting posts that Ukrainians doing in order to spread the word.

> “And I have a problem when mentioned that all russians are responsible for this was. Aaaand my post blocked too.“

\
After seeing another post about this dude, I decide to use the power that HackerNoon gives us to bring more attention to this problem.
