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.
Yesterday's discussion post.
"The civilian casualties reported by the UN are half of what they were at this point in the Iraq war in a country with twice the population. So either USA was purposely trying to genocide Iraqis or Russia is being 4 times more careful to not hurt civilians. If Russia wasn't specifically trying to keep civilians from harm they would have just levelled Kyiv to the ground with cruise missiles first thing and there is nothing anyone could do about it."
