>You make some good points, and it would be good to discuss them in a post about those topics

The whole point is that "posts about those topics" never get the same type of traction as these posts do.

That is unfortunate, it may have something to do with the fact that this latest conquest of Ukraine by Russia started only days ago

In any case, hijacking a discussion about this particular war and humanitarian crisis to talk about something else, just to get more traction, seems like an unfortunate and cynical ploy

It's basically like Kanye coming into the thread and being like, "yo, victims of Russia's conquest of Ukraine, I'm'a let you finish, but these other victims are the best victims of ALL TIME"
