My position is simply that no other conflict in the world, including Gaza, can be compared in priority to something that is happening at the scale and in your borders like Ukraine, like you happened to suggest.
I mean, show me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ongoing_armed_conflicts in this map, which conflicts do you consider useful/ethical/moral/whatever to put in the news or send UN troops to and which ones do you consider “dumb” and ok to ignore?
I would love it if there was a newscast that weighted coverage by humanitarian impact.
Geopolitics - as in how to manage the politics of the actual non-ideal world order - is unfortunately a separate thing. I’m glad we’re confronting Russia, because they did a major escalation and they definitely don’t care about human rights. NATO laggards like my own country need to beef up spending.
