Just like during Covid, [b]when the media decided to be "respectful" (aka scared of lawsuits and prudish) and not show devastating and harrowing scenes of deaths in hospitals, contributing to a false sense of security among certain segments of the population, so too are gobs of exploded or burnt human corpses in Ukraine not shown on TV. [/b]

So the suffering of other species is a useful toolto shape public opinion, because the media has no compunction to show their charred corpses. And from then to imagining what a human corpse looks like... it's but a short leap.

What? Media did everything they could and then some when it came to scaring the living shit out of us all.  Why do you think so many people believe this virus is a death sentence or will lead to a certain disability?  And did you forget the fake videos from China with people dropping dead on the street? Did you really believe the footage of bodies piling up in the doorways was just hidden away from you and your immediate neighborhood was spared the plague?  And this war in Ukraine already has it fair share of fake photos and videos too.  Some people think it's 100s of thousands of civilians dying there, so whatever it shown is definitely working.

COVID killed over one million Americans. That is a fact. Unlike the series of red herrings in your post.[/quote]

Ok, make up your mind.  You said that media didn't scare us enough, but you sound pretty scared and concerned and throwing the total death toll in my face, even though you technically cannot confirm any statistics or accuracy of data yourself, you just have to trust what you hear

What I said isn't "series of red herrings", it's purely my observations, because this is all I can confirm.  I invite you to do the same. Look around you, remember how things were in the height of the pandemic, how many people around you died, people you personally know.  remember how many ambulances you used to hear on an average day during the height of transmission/mortality in your area.  Remember how overwhelmed or not the local hospitals were where you live.  Then compare this to all the other years, how many people you know or heard of died of things like cancer, heart attacks, aneurisms, strokes, accidents, etc.   Based on what you observed, do you think media did a poor coverage of the horrible impact of this pandemic? Do you think they didn't show you enough dead bodies piled in the doorways or are you having an issue with you not seeing enough dead bodies piling up where you live?  [/quote]

to go back to the actual topic discussed (I wasn't the one bringing Covid, you did) you are annoyed that media isn't showing enough gruesome footage of killed civilians.  Why?  Is it because you believe that there is mass genocide going there and you are unhappy others are not buying into it?  [/quote]
