Weeks ago, there was fiery coverage of a missile strike on a Ukrainian market that Russia had callously carried out against the Ukrainian people. Independent commentators reviewing the footage at the time believed the missile actually came from Ukraine. Lo and behold, the claim that this missile was Russian has been walked back: Ukraine actually did this to her own people. It is thought that this civilian attack was carried out to bolster support for Ukraine during Blinken’s visit. Truly disgusting if that is true, and a tragedy either way.

That headline
Missile-invovled tragedy
My favorite case of imperialist passive voice: “US is blamed after bombs hit Afghan hospital.”
Just because the fighter jet, the pilot, the missiles, etc are all American you can’t blame them.
Car hits pedestrian, driver not injured.
Funny how these always coincide with US officials visiting.
Lemmy version is few comments long atm but already seen some heaviest cope.
The “ACKSHULLY, every single death caused by Ukraine is REALLY Russia’s fault” line whenever they get backed into a corner. When you learn all your international relations and security policy from the latest Marvel film.
Can you link to it? I can’t find it
So strange, on my Lemmy client only see 4 comments but in a private browser I see 10. What the heck?
Maybe it’s people you blocked?
What do you see when you do this:
LemmyGrad Link to Lemmy.ML post: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/1898332
Lemmy.ML post: https://lemmy.ml/post/5148488It looks like these are the exact same post but through lemmygrad I only see 4 comments and through lemmy.ml I see all 10
That’s WILD. So the same post can have comments we cannot see from the grad if the posters come from instances that defederated us, even if the post itself originated from an instance that federates with us?
Calling @[email protected] Is this a bug or is this expected behavior?
Just checked and it looks like I haven’t blocked anyone.
What about the other way around? Otherwise, might be a bug.
Can people deny me the ability to see their comments?
I’m surprised Western press isn’t burying this.
They’re preparing to ditch Ukraine
this article still makes slight concessions to appease the capitalists. “they just missed, it was just a little whoopsie!”. sometimes its easier for them to skew the truth in their favor than to deny it.
The article is completely skewed for the UA side, even before we read what it is about we learn from it how Russia bad and UA good. And it still prompted that one absolute moron on Lemmy to announce that NYT is “Russian propaganda masquarading as news” and then blabber about “journalistic integrity” as he flies even further from any integrity.
Also interesting how there can be hundreds comments making Russia bad circlejerk under every Russia bad article, but there are just few under this.
and that is the second “whoopsie” already, there was also an ukranian missle that hit poland and killed two, yet they keep on blasting that russian army is unprepared, inconsequential and whatnot
There was also the prison, possibly the dam. I have trouble keeping up with all these.
The pizzeria was definitely Russia, right?
These shenanigans are straight up melting my brain and its putting me in a severe headspace.
