[Note: While I do intend to write more about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, this post is intended to address this only indirectly rather than directly, by helping illustrate how to find other sources of information, and you are once again implored to rely on other news sources. I need to get inside the war’s OODA loop to write about it usefully, which requires more dedicated time than I’ve had this past week.]
Purely stylistic note, I think this looks better in italics. I’m curious what other people think about this.
I think a good argument could be made for both italics and plaintext.
If I were skimming the post then putting the block in italics would be helpful.
Reading a whole paragraph in italics is unpleasant to me.
My impulse is to add a horizontal break…
…but I don’t know what formatting problems a line break might cause to Zvi’s importing between different platforms. Zvi may also just have different stylistic tastes than I do.
I agree that the italics would be nicer, it would make that paragraph more obviously skip-able. And it is a paragraph that I (and possibly others) chose to skip.
