    This is horrible on every level and should give those who are promoting a romantic image of war some pause.https://twitter.com/drewharwell/status/1514941871830835200 …

    New: Ukraine has run more than 8,600 facial recognition searches on dead or captured Russians in the 50 days since the war began, using the scans to find the soldiers' social media profiles - and send photos of their corpses to their families back home https://wapo.st/3KHnkxE

        It's definitely immoral to send parents pictures of their children's corpses and also violates international law

        Seems like an effective use of that tech. Not the corpse pics to traumatize the families, but to let them know they’re dead.

        Who has a romantic image of war? There's been enough footage from Ukraine to contradict it.

        Replying to @Quester1791 @HeerJeet

        Al lot of Americans are framing the war as “evil empire invades valiant, plucky good guys “ The Ukrainians obviously have a right to defend themselves, but they routinely publicly dehumanize their opponents and violated the Geneva conventions:

        So if Afghans or Iraqis did this to American troops you wouldn't object?

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        Why aren't Russians bringing their dead home to their families? Why would a nation do this to the people who fought on their behalf?
