  • They do because that’s factually correct. But is it worth reporting that a government website reflects events?

    It would be news in my opinion if there was an actual message behind it. But since there’s no warning, not even partial, it doesn’t carry political weight – which in my think the headline implies (though the article makes it clear that it’s not).

    Basically, the headline can be reduced to “German agency does its job”

    Russia is in a tough spot here. On the one hand, they’d love to play the “see, everyone does it, so our little invasion is perfectly fine”, but Maduro was a political ally, so they can’t really do that. On the other hand, they look like the buffoons they are now because the US simply did to their ally what they couldn’t do to a country without major alliances; that is quickly invade and get rid of the head of state.

    Of course, they will say something like “Ukraine isn’t actually a sovereign state but rather a Russian oblast, unlike Venezuela which is totally more legitimate, so what you did is totally different from what we’re doing”. Some doublethink will do, no need to actually state anything rooted in reality.

    On the other hand, men on average live shorter, and we just go “well it’s just risky behavior and physical labor I guess 🤷‍♂️” and they’re aren’t any task forces for that either, truth is we as a society don’t care enough about these issues regardless of sex
