Russia's Investigative Committee said on Sunday it had launched a criminal probe into the killing of a Russian war reporter, an incident the country's defence ministry previously blamed on Ukraine's use of cluster munitions.
Thankfully the Geneva Convention doesn’t agree with your faulty logic. Your personal value judgements on the quality of journalism being produced has absolutely zero bearing on whether killing a journalist is acceptable.
Just to check if you’re applying your “logic” evenly or just cherry-picking where and how you apply it: should targeting of Russian medics be allowed, since they’re only saving the lives of Russian soldiers? If not, how is targeting a journalist (for Russia) different than targeting a medic (for Russia)?
And remember: the Geneva Convention disagrees with you. Maybe that should be motivation to check if what you’re saying is actually reasonable or not.
Instead of reading the points made and perhaps agreeing or disagreeing, you get to shortcut the whole thing by just saying “I didn’t read it, and yet I disagree!”. Why even pretend to participate?
You’ll notice I actually wrote a comment and made points of my own, and linked to a secondary comment going into more detail. You didn’t bother to address either. Must be nice to be proud of being ignorant.
“When the facts are against me, shut the whole thing down with namecalling and dismissiveness!”. Again, I guess I really shouldn’t expect any different. Only one side is even trying to have a conversation; the other is just playing a game of yelling loudly with no substance and shutting down anyone with contrary views.
I don’t have to read into it because it is bs anyway. Russia has no press, it has propagandists. The Geneva convention is also something Russia did not sign into and it isn’t like Ukraine targeted him specifically because he’s a “reporter”, he simply went to a dangerous place and paid the price for it. And why is it dangerous? Because his country illegally invaded this place. This is nothing but fake outcry to make excuses for a country that literally directly targets actual frontline reporters, and I’m talking with having them in their sights, identifying them and still pulling the trigger. Just like civilians and other actual literal war crimes. So yes, I don’t care about your tankie points, at all, because you’re hypocritical pieces of shit that downplay literal historical atrocities. So excuse me when I cannot find the nerve to give you the benefit of the doubt anymore.
Stop bullshitting. I’m not going to provide links to some neonazi sources about immigration and expect you to read that either. You’re a tankie and rashist and that’s pretty evident by your various comments on those topics. That makes you an extremist and clearly irrelevant to be taken into consideration in such discussions.

A good write-up here.

lemmygrad, sure buddytankie.
Why did I expect anything different?

“Thankfully, I’m prescient, so I know something is bs without having read it.”
In case there was any doubt that you weren’t actually willing to have a reasonable discussion, you cleared it up.
