Believe the mass graves and filled ERs.
I didn't actually see mass graves or filled ERs.
Hrm, the full ERs were easy to find though, news were coming up multiple times a day which hospital is rejecting patients and of doctors and nurses collapsing from 40-80 hours continuous work.
Mass graves... trickier. We tend to not want to be faced with mass deaths in general, which is why we tend to not glorify this as much as we do personal death. They were in the news though, and of course travel to any poorer country and they were/are easy to find.
We were discussing "seeing with your own eyes" vs "being told what to think by various propaganda organs". The latter being less good.
The scenario you’ve put folks in here is one where you had your eyes closed while we all watched.
Now you’re saying you didn’t see what we all saw while you had your eyes closed.
You willfully had your eyes closed and refused to see and now you’re being contrarian and difficult based on that.
You prove it didn’t happen.
Why is every news outlet a propaganda organ, but your own eyes aren't?
You’re not alone. I also didn’t see either of those things, or know anyone that died from it.
I’m also not denying those things exist, I’m simply affirming your reality.
I guess you can’t see if your eyes are closed.
