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.
its kinda genius because being tarred as a "genocide denier" is probably the strongest charge you can casually accuse someone of
Also it does double duty by softly equating actual genocides with much lesser crimes, diluting the concept and cheapening denunciations of some of the greatest crimes against humanity.
Now all the libs think Russia is committing genocide in Ukraine by removing refugees from war zones and the word has effectively lost all meaning.
Accepting refugees is now genocide
I mean, most of my friends who accept the uigher genocide narrative deny the white genocide. If you can get them to admit that, then it comes down to quibbling over evidence and what have you.
(note: I don't believe the white genocide is happening)
