NAFO, or the North Atlantic Fella Organization, is an internet meme and social media movement that fights Russian propaganda and disinformation about the invasion of Ukraine). It is a collective of Twitter posters who use tongue-in-cheek memes to mock, troll, and discredit Russias war. NAFO is not an organization or an institution, but a meme-powered community of like-minded people who help Ukraine win. The group has a combative relationship with Russian ambassador Mikhail Ulyanov and will often accuse him of spreading propaganda and lies about the countrys invasion of Ukraine. NAFOs volunteer "troops" personalize the memes with different uniforms, glasses, and weapons, and some fellas are Ukrainian soldiers who provide pictures from the battlefield, mocking the incompetence of the Russian military or praising Ukrainian bravery. NAFO has raised money for the Georgian Legion, a volunteer military unit in Ukraine, and has garnered a sizable fan-base among Ukraine supporters and captured the attention of global leaders.
