the proposed “flag the whole Ukraine community NSFW” approach has.
To be clear, I was not proposing keeping this community flagged NSFW permanently. That was a quick, naive solution I temporarily implemented not realizing how much of an effect it would have. I'm really asking 'what content should be required to have a NSFW flag?', and unless you have additional concerns we've settled on flagging combat videos that show the people involved (see pinned post / sidebar).
Sometimes stuff gets through for longer than it should /shrug
The rule is right there on the side bar and has been for as long as I remember.
All combat footage should probably be flagged nsfw,
I think that is too aggressive. There is all kinds of footage that is clearly safe (eg: drone on drone).
I'm thinking a rule requiring NSFW for combat footage where bodies (living or otherwise) are visible.
The community is fine. I was getting complaints that (what I thought was benign) drone footage was NSFW and autoplaying in /All.
I'm going to discuss with other mods about setting a NSFW guideline and where we should draw the line because I think the NSFW community flag is too penalizing.
I changed the community to NSFW because people were complaining that drone footage cutting to static was NSFW and displaying in 'All'.
Edit: To be clear I do not think this is NSFW and would gladly revert to not-NSFW if admins and community don't care about the inevitable complaints.
This isn't a news community. It is a Ukrainian one. The preface "Russians say..." is all that is needed for desirable participants to understand the rest is BS.
You are spamming. Move on.
Edit: Oh, and FTR
I just made it a week ago or so.

While Ukraine has taken a small piece of Kursk
That 'small piece of Kursk' is more territory than Russia has gained between their Kharkiv withdrawal and subsequent slow grinding offensive.
The losses are for less than nothing. Even with their seemingly inexorable advance they've lost overall territory and fighting ability relative to Ukraine. I still project Russia has maybe 2 years tops of fighting left but so long as Ukraine limits their withdrawal rate to what we've seen of late they will win.
This can't be done fast enough!
Truth is a defence for slander/libel. Her coming that close to killing a pedestrian, and being so demonstrably... 'unconcerned' about it would be the obvious rebuttal. Also, it being an excited utterance under stress would strain the claim that any reasonable person would believe the statement was factual, and hence, isn't slanderous.
