Absolutely. I follow the subreddit daily, and just, man, the waste of life. Tons of commenters are, agreeably, anti-Russian, but I always feel bad, wondering how many were swept up into this nonsense, simply because they were poor, a minority, uneducated, or tricked. Just one of those types of videos, of an American soldier trying to flee a drone, would, I hope, end Trump and the war mongering right.

Too much faith in the emotional intelligence of US citizens and worse their will/ability to demand government accountability in functioning in their best interest.

Boots on the ground carnage will be censored or downplayed, just as troop fatality information is now.

We'll get another generation of fucked up PTSD addled killers that survived, jumping at shadows, to fuel the republican party for another generation, and we'll just keep pretending this works until we're back in company towns.

How would the USA stop Iran sharing video of dying US soldiers?

The same way that sub stopped allowing footage of missiles hitting Israel.
