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.
New Ukrainian list dropped
30,000 Russian troops dead they claim. Plus 1,330 (+8) tanks, 3,258 (+12) armored fighting vehicles, 628 (+5) artillery pieces, 203 (+2) MLR systems, 93 (+0) air defense systems, 207 (+1) warplanes, 174 (+4) helicopters, 503 (+0) operational and tactical level UAVs, 116 (+1) cruise missiles, 13 (+0) warships/cutters, 2,226 (+0) other vehicles and tanker trucks, and 48 (+0) pieces of special equipment Disabled/destroyed/captured
Those mobile crematoriums must be so overworked from having to cremate thousands of corpses and melt down thousands of destroyed equipments to let Russia put out their fake news propaganda about how ukraine's number count is so inflated it's distorting reality.
Damn it looks like they're doing so well they don't need any more help :shrug-outta-hecks:
If anything they should start paying back, with interest, everything they've borrowed since they'll obviously be having their victory parade in Red Square pretty soon
Also this looks a lot like Ukrainians admitting their own losses, it’s actually eerily similar to the numbers of Ukrainian losses claimed by the Russians. Projection?
Wasn’t it 30,000 dead troops back in March? They have gotten 0 kills in several months of intense fighting?
Just overestimate casualties early on, and then slowly catch up. It's like a stretch goal.
