They are really opening up the floodgate on Ukrainian-doom reporting. What a time to be alive! and what a change of tune from just a few months ago!

Unfortunely, it is used to push for further militarization.

Yeah, I noticed libs got notably more quite after the failed summer counteroffensive and have slowly been becoming more doomeristic since then. Like, before that a lot of them genuinely believed that Leopards/Abrams etc. were impervious machines that could survive indirect nuke hits and that Russia totally was done for. I also don't think any of them anticipated that Russia and it's tiny nominal GDP would be able produce more ammunition then NATO in it's entirety.
