    You’re commenting this on an article covering the human toll of this war. Telling us individual stories of people having to deal with losing limbs and chronic pain. As well as mentioning veterans battle with ptsd and even mentioning how one man that lost his leg wanted to kill himself. Not to mention recent articles from other mainstream outlets covering russias human trafficking of over 700,000 Ukrainian children and how there are currently over 90,000 reports of russian soldiers raping Ukrainians. The human side is being covered.

      Yea the article was the prompt. The implication being that we might be seeing a shift in coverage at the moment compared to, say, a year ago.

      Also, I’m asking questions about the mainstream and what’s common in it. Just did a quick check on The Guardian, as a random example, and couldn’t find any similar reporting. Big difference between “it is reported on some places, if you know where to look” and “mainstream media cares about this issue”.

      And you missed his point

      He is worried about the revisions/gaslighting that will happen 10,15,20 years from now.
