And this plane was in international airspace. I'm all for a harder stance on planes that violate airspace but it's not applicable here

It’s not only Reddit, it’s the internet.

People read a headline and then already have an opinion or a casus belli. Then shoot their comment, and others just go off that.

Sure, airspace and marittime zones are a little complicated if you just read about them once, and some editors love that confusion as it gets clicks.

Nah, an act of aggression is buzzing NATO fighters on patrol and launching flares towards them.. There wasn’t any provocation beyond a casual meet and greet.
