You have to actively go look for Syria (or Yemen) news, while Ukraine news come looking for you.
I don't get why you feel the need to get on the offensive about Russia. The only case I'm making is that being constantly subjected to rushed war news pieces isn't of any use except the instigation of primal/emotional reactions.
The most trustworthy information will be disclosed after the war is over anyway, when the need for propaganda diminishes.
I thought the OP was complaining that the horrors in Syria weren't reported enough. From your post I gather that the objection is there is too much reporting on the horrors of what is happening in Ukraine, and you'd prefer to use the example of Syria to justify less reporting on things like, for example, the thousands of Ukrainian children that Russia is holding in camps and not returning to their parents [1]. That's pretty horrifying.
Thanks for proving my point by spamming me with more unrequested news.
FYI I'll ignore it as I've been bombarded with this children in camps news piece for days already on all the media I have access to.
Since I'm not a hypocrite like you, I can tell you that I don't care at all about what's happening in Ukraine as I prefer living my day without being forcefed terrifying/incorrect news or even worse propaganda. The same way as I ignored what was happening in Syria and Yemen or whatever other war/disaster happening right now in the world.

You made no point. Just because you don't want to follow a topic that does not mean it's ok to censor it and stop everyone from liking things you don't like. That would be a stupid thing to defend, specially considering your content is already served by recommendation systems.
Oh I've made it very clearly. You just don't seem to be interested in understanding it nor having an honest discussion on it.

Which I never did or asked for.
On the other hand, you clearly show an intent to force feed everyone else with the kind of news you deem more relevant than others. Don't like the "editorial line" of Twitter? Go read the Kiev Independent.
Why should twitter follow your editorial line of preference, or why should I be subjected to it?
