Add to the above list if you can, thank you.


Resources For Understanding The War Beyond The Bulletins


Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map, who is an independent youtuber with a mostly neutral viewpoint.

Moon of Alabama, which tends to have good analysis (though also a couple bad takes here and there)

Understanding War and the Saker: neo-conservative sources but their reporting of the war (so far) seems to line up with reality better than most liberal sources.

On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent journalist reporting in the Ukrainian warzones.

Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.

      I use Feedly, as they have way (if you pay for it) to filter topics by things like 'Geopolitics' or 'Foreign Policy' or by country, or even just mentions of a particular word in either the title or body of the media posts. That latter one is really helpful if I wanna investigate specific things - it's how I created the comment on what different sites were saying about if there's going to be a recession.

      I used to literally just go through each individual headline but when I added a bunch more sources, that become infeasible and needed a way to cut it down. The filters leave out about 5% because nothing's perfect I guess, so I also manually set it up using the aforementioned mentions feature for key countries like Russia, Ukraine, China, and other countries.
