use your powers for good and poison dns to stop russian disinformation

How about not poisoning anything? Not using powers is also an option.

standing by and letting russia continue to spread disinformation isn't a good thing.

They're going to spread disinformation regardless, and they can block any DNS provider they want regardless. So I guess it could help non-Russians, but it won't do anything for Russians.

I agree in principle but if we're going to do it we should target all disinformation equally, and that would mean that far more american content would get blocked than russian content.

Eh, Americans got that 24 hour news cycle brain. You can just admit to all the war crimes and not have to hide them for 50 years.
