      Yet here we are with everyone calling it a war crime, then when they are shown it’s in fact not, they just plug their ears and go on with their narrative.

        narratives dont work when you’re exposed to factual information - but if you willingly disbelieve and remain intentionally ignorant then all the factual information in the world wont change your belief. aka this thread and others like it for the last few weeks.

          Agreed, the amount of people throwing words around like “genocide” and “carpet bombing” have long detached from reality.

            yep. the ideological warfare is largely electronic these days, fought in forums and threads. a battle waged by paragraph. where. every. word. matters.

              And yet words are becoming meaningless because of how they’re abused to push a narrative.
