Anyone would involve themselves in sensitive topics like those, when GV is supposed to be mainly for career and corporate related discussions...was bound to see faces of people(behind the mask of anonymity) which they weren't supposed to see.
People here aren't your family, nor your friend. They are simply just internet users who are behind the mask of anonymity.
As for 'safe spaces', again, geopolitics and conflicts so close to people's literal homes is not supposed to be taken over by "but according to my opinion🤓", like...no one gives a crap, it became personal for a lot of people and logic was thrown out of the window. Why was this discussed here in the first place? Go to reddit, Twitter, IG or whatever.
