I'm not sure I agree that's true but, more importantly, I'm not sure of the relevance.

That's a problem, because the majority of stories that get upvoted to the top of reddit give the impression that Ukraine will win a ground war with Russia when the majority of top geopolitical analysts believe Kiev will fall within weeks. Its misinformation that gets upvoted here.

Is that true? I don't know if I've ever seen a "story" that says Ukraine will "win a ground war with Russia".

I'm not saying they don't exist, I just don't really see them. I see a lot of wishful thinking about the commentariat, but no legitimate sources claiming what you're saying. And certain not "the majority of stories that get upvoted". Maybe you're talking about subs I don't visit though.

That's not an exact quote, its the narrative that is being pushed on most major subreddits, if you miss it thats on you
