      Be obnoxious asshole that does not contribute anything

      “Hey I’m a journalist, you can’t touch me. Just like the bad guy from Lethal Weapon 2, I got diplomatic immunity!”

      Meanwhile, the Z gang is shooting at actual journalists, but that’s ok because they are on your side. They shouldn’t have come to an active war zone. Oh sorry, special military operation zone.

          Why would journalists need Diplomatic Immunity?

          Exactly.

          Whataboutism.

          Same conflict, so why does “don’t go into an active war zone” work for one side but not the other? Hypocrisy? Martial law sucks, so you get arrested for dumb shit. Nihil sub sole novum.
