--- "...he [ Juncker ] was a perfect choice to have such long elected office in the EU. Next time look up who someone is and their reputation her before posting. Hint: Juncker wore out his welcome among conservatives a long time ago."

What a funny little reply you've made. Thinking you're telling me something I did not know. Hubris becomes you.

Of course, I know who Juncker is, and am quite able to do my own research. I do not cite him because I admire him, as does the original poster admires her headliner, Davydov.

I cite him because, though a complete jackass, his statements were covered throughout the world press show a shift in narrative.

As to the EU enthusiasm with euthanasia and abortion, the US is not far behind when one cites the likes of the Democrats and RINOs here, none of whom I would cite because I admire them, but all of whom I would cite because sometimes their views prove a point.

I have cited Mein Kampf to illustrate a point, though I am not a Nazi. I have cited the Communist Manifesto, though I am no Communist. I have cited the Koran, though I am no Muslim. And I will cite Juncker, another jackass, when I choose to illustrate a point.

The POINT, Widget Jr, is that the narrative in the worldwide media seems to be shifting.

Another point that I will cite is that there is a cottage industry grown up around what some call war porn. Monetized YouTube videos a plenty, complete as channels with seeking donations and support and subscriber-ship and tips and the selling of "merch" all as money makers on the backs of the Ukraine-Russia war. It is proved with citations and links and and the large share of these "Ukraine KaBoom" channels are uploaded from the United States, so residents here are pocketing a pretty penny to entertain those who would watch. Click. Donate. Money.

Because for many, THAT is what this is all about. Corruption in so many places. Turn over some more rocks, friend. There's more corruption to be seen.

narrative in the worldwide media seems to be shifting.

The narrative in the mass media shifts back and forth all the time. Taking a few articles on Ukraine out hundreds per week, then acting as if they are the ones with deeper meaning proves nothing when "the narrative" shifts back and forth every few days. "The narrative" by itself is not the reality, it is what those creating it want people to think.

No matter what "the narrative" says today, until one side clearly wins and the other loses, Russia has not won and Ukraine has not lost.
