I assume they meant stakeholders…cuz like yo, that’s us!

Spin is actually adding words like “admits” to a headline in order to lead the reader to a certain belief. In this case the .ml headline leads us to believe this information has been concealed. When a much more reasonable take is that you, me, and the average reader is probably coming across this info for the first time. It’s not been hidden, it’s new.

Seems like the take from .ml should be, “You fools, rise up! Your government is getting your countrymen killed in a bullshit war, AGAIN!”

But this headline spins it to read as, “This bullshit war is getting people killed but the government is hiding it, wake up sheeple!”

The first is a cry to come together the second serves to divide us small people.

God damn, good catch! Wishing you the best of luck in your recovery and your remission.

Nah dog this is just bad spin. You scape goat me because I choose to speak up but it sure sounds to me like you’re living in your own little bubble. Personally I don’t know how many people have been killed on either side, I’ve just assumed it’s more than either side wants to admit because losing anyone is always more than the powers that be want to admit.

Reuters being about 2-3 days behind the conflict feels pretty normal. But like call it what you will. Maybe it is a global propaganda apparatus… But more likely it’s just people being careful and slowing down transmission speed so they can confirm what information they are passing along. Buy you know, you do you.

What a bad title, it’s not even the one used on the website. It’s not like Reuters has been hiding this shit. The US Gov is the one who would have to “admit” anything except they’ve already publicly said that some troops will for and that’s a loss they are excited to make.

Fucking .ml spin. You know you don’t have to try to make the US seem bad right? We do it ourselves just fine.

I mean, I feel like woke isn’t a thing to be for or against, it’s literally being aware. There is an implied woke=anti-cruelty, but I feel like you can be woke and support the oppression of others through the power of the system. Just don’t expect other people to recognize your “wokeness” or be pleased that you’re so aware that the things you’re doing are cruel and shitty.

This feels like my step dad being upset that the weather channel is trying to scare us by calling it an atmospheric river! Like dude we’re using a fun new term to describe a weather pattern, it just means rain if you’re caught beneath the river. Not scary unless you’re in a flood zone.

We didn’t see how we got to 1984. We just see one person living with consequences of what society has become. We’re building our own 1984 right now!

Cold is not an issue if you wear this cool new things I’ve invented. It’s called a jacket! 🧥

But seriously I used to ride my bike to work in a ski town in Colorado throughout the winter. The county plows the bike paths and sidewalks along with the roads. Walking and riding all winter long is no problem on skinny road bike tires. If winter makes it impossible to ride around town that is not a winter problem it’s a priorities problem.

Someone made this video that’s a pretty decent watch

Honestly my video game addiction is the reason I’m still on Windows. I play league and they only support Windows now. I’ve tried dual booting but it’s just not a smooth experience. I’m going to end up on Windows to play league at some point and sometimes I want to squeeze in a cheeky game during the day and not just at night.

I haven’t figured out a solution that works for me yet but I’m open to ideas. I also don’t have a solid solution for playing TFT or league on my steamdeck besides dual booting Windows and that’s not going to happen.
