Ok, I guess the title is easy to misunderstand but I still don't think it's the blatantly untrue statement you think it is. Maybe they intentionally wrote the title in a way that is easy to misunderstand to make you read the article and that would be misleading, but if you read it, you will understand that they are talking about something very specific when they say trauma on an unseen scale since ww1 and not claiming it's the worst thing ever since ww1.

It is blatently untrue and exagerated propaganda. Of course all human suffering is bad - however, it is also not a competition of who has more trauma. This is a shit article with a shit title and it should be flagged as misinformation/propaganda.
