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.

      “had been born in Taiwan in 1953, still had an active Taiwan passport, and had done military service for Taiwan”

      Very frustrating the way the news framed this immediately.

        And how much damage does it do when people read the initial reports about "Chinese man kills Taiwanese and by the way the PRC hasn't ruled out invading Taiwan" and then don't read the follow-up retractions because it's already churned out of the 24 hour news cycle. The only people who know about this are people like us who have :brainworms: and sickos who collect newspaper clippings (man that term no longer applies) about mass shootings.
