Has anyone noticed a shift in tone on Ukraine war reporting? I wonder if the West is looking to prime people for a way out. All of a sudden we might find it IS a humanitarian crisis after all.

    A humanitarian crisis that will be blamed solely on Russia, while the media will pretend NATO was trying to prevent/mitigate it. Calling it now.

      You don’t even need to call it, western and westoid media are already pushing “Ukrainian genocide” and “mass murders” of civilians by Russians narrative despite UN assess the number of civilian victims on both sides on around 10000 which is remarkably low for that type of conflict lenght and intensity (and even wiki is quoting that). Lemmy and reddit threads about war are full of that shit.

            Once upon a time I used to love left unity…now I see it is “left up until Marxism Leninism and AES.” Seeing terminally online Western anarchists and Maoists/Hoxists give each other sloppy head makes me want to strangle someone.
