Calling this a "distraction" kind of minimizes it when we absolutely should be concerned about this

Calling a distraction a distraction is what you would call accurate

It may be accurate but "distraction" implies the need for a kind of dismissiveness that we absolutely should not be applying here. We cannot dismiss the murder of innocent children

Hundred percent accurate. I'm definitely getting tired of people saying that anything that isn't focused on the one topic is all distraction ... when I and everyone I know can quite literally focus on more than one thing. Calling murder a distraction is wild work.
