  • Okay.

    I guess in the same way you found my comment to be for no reason, I also found yours to be the same.

    IMO, your comment wasn’t really on topic. They asked a question about why it happens to them, and you replied that it never happens to you. How is that on topic?

    I did find it interesting that it doesn’t happen in the US, I was just checking that you were just making a comment about your own experience, and not to help answer the ops question. That’s cool, and I was just checking.

    I hope you have a nice weekend:)

















  • Sorry if I misunderstood. I’ll reply on the basis of your latest comment.

    I said I don’t see why I valid target would be made invalid just because it’s inside Russia

    Is anybody saying a target would be made invalid just because it’s in Russia? My point was all targets inside Russia are open to increased scrutiny because of targeting inside Russia.

    The children’s hospital example is because Russia likely does not have children’s hospitals (or other non-military assets) inside Ukraine, and therefore Russian targets inside Ukraine are almost certainly going to be valid. On the other hand, when some high up revenge obsessed Ukrainian military personnel decide they want to target Russian children’s hospitals, it’s useful for their targets to have increased scrutiny to prevent an additional civilian massacre.

    Just to clarify, the children’s hospital example is being used to convey an obviously non military target which additional scrutiny can prevent from being attacked.

    I’m going to stop replying to this thread now as I’m not sure I can make my point much clearer. I might re-read through the context though just in case I misunderstood something somewhere. I do Lemmy on mobile so sometimes it’s difficult to track a conversation.
