Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict

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.

Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict and, unlike most western analysts, has some degree of understanding on how war works. He is a reactionary, however.

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

Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.


Telegram Channels

Again, CW for anti-LGBT and racist, sexist, etc speech, as well as combat footage.

      They are correct. Action or nothing. China always manages to fumble almost every foreign policy action. I say this as constructive criticism, I fully support the PRC I am just always frustrated by them making the wrong call.

      The need to get a phone line to DPRK and consult them, because DPRK is WAY better about their stances geopolitically. The problem is that PRC is trying to have their cake and eat it too right now in regards to US relations, they want to enjoy trade and investments but also want to remove the shackles imposed on them to contain them by the US.

      You can’t have both. The US only does business this way, they do not treat third world colonized nations as equals the way China wishes to. The deal of Chinese rapprochement by Nixon/Kissinger/Deng was one of master and subordinate. They need to accept this and purge the last of the pro-American fantasies and sympathizers from their government, the time of fooling Americans into moving their means of production to your shores is over. They are onto the plan, time to enter the next phase.

      Xi it’s time to hit the communism button and nationalize American assets and mass sell off American holdings. Seize Taiwan.
