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.
well, zelensky certainly isn't fucking up his job as a media figurehead for the ukrainian state. he could have fled to lviv when the US asked him to for example, but he stuck around in kyiv (obviously i don't buy the manufactured narrative of him dodging russian assassins and missiles all over the place but still). i think you can give him some credit for not shying away from the danger but instead appearing to face up to it. you could also criticise him for being bloodthirsty to the point of arguing in favour of WW3...
