  Thanks for the link! 🙏🏻 Great points!
context: If more people played games fewer would be fooled by this sort of “footage” in the first place. Yeah you heard me right, save the world, play Arma. >
  
  Arma is at it again. This game has been fooling journalists and the public for many years.everyone with a pc good enough ahold try it. >
  
  ARMA 4 coming soon, I wonder how bad it will trick people once they've worked out the inevitable bugs and jank like burned out tank hulls being launched into orbit and whatnot. >
  
  ARMA Reforger has been fantastic as a technical demo of what's to come. ARMA 4 can be insane. >
  
  Must be a slow news day. >
  
  Its all about clicks nowadays. >
  
  I love how they do a deep analytical dive of the videos to verify if they are fake or real. Meanwhile, I'm sitting here in 0.1 seconds being like, "Oh yeah, that's Arma" >
  
  I know, they could probably ask the local gamer in the office or newsroom and get an answer lol >
  
  Yeah but then when the article simply says “We asked Josh in IT and he said it was ARMA.” People would give them shit for barely investigating and not having any evidence other than “one of our people said so.” >
  
  As if they wouldn't rephrase it as: "we consulted our staff technical expert who readily identified the footage as being from a video game, they specifically identified it as being from the game ARMA"
