I disagree it’s a media thing. It has been covered. It’s just not an unusual story so people don’t share it as much.
Now billionaires dying on a submarine will get shared plenty. People love those stories. So naturally, you’ll see more about it.
But that’s okay today? At least in my social circles it is. Just talk about it to whichever friend you have that demands you answer immediately. They are being unreasonable.
They’re authoritarian and they hate the west. Of course they’re appealing to communists.
Western commies idolising brutal authoritarian regimes is nothing new.
