    These misanthropic comments are disgusting.

    CNN* is an obvious US propaganda channel and yet we were all outraged when WikiLeaks revealed that US helicopter pilots gunned down fucking journalists in Iraq.

    There are few rules in war.

    You do not attack hospitals, first aid responders and journalists, for fucks sake. I don’t give a fuck whose “side” this journalist belongs to. They are there to provide information of a battle field that would otherwise be lost.

    When Russia attacked a hospital some time in 2022 after the war started, I was disgusted.

    What has happened to you people. wtf.

    • this is an example. I am not trying to bring a “muh but US is doing propaganda too” bullshit take in here.

      I’m fairly certain the same people would be outraged at reports of Russia killing civilians. Apparently Russian civilians, and journalists at that, don’t count.

      Then they pretend shock when it is highlighted that dehumanising humans is part and parcel of fascism.

      One could be forgiven for thinking that outrage over Russian war crimes is disguised happiness at yet another ‘justification’ for prolonging the war; it’s clearly not motivated by a wish for ending the suffering.
