Ukraine does it now Israel. It's completely absurd.

It's so fucking weird, they act like they're completely removed from the actively engaged war they are in and tweet as if it's prestige television. What the hell is going on?

They are removed, there's an sub-industry of those brand management companies that are behind the "xD so relatable" corporate twitter accounts but for countries. So there's a "social media manager" or something that's posting attempting to manipulate that emotions of people using morbid war footage
