News update for July 14th: I passed my exam! So I'm going out to celebrate today. Also, it looks like Japan is giving up on pretending it's a democracy, America is on its knees begging to invade Iran, and Moon of Alabama has an update on the current macro state of the war.

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.

Telegram Channels

Again, CW for anti-LGBT and racist, sexist, etc speech, as well as combat footage.

      I like to imagine american capitalist leaders reading through this site, then stumbling on these comments and going "holy shit, this is a great idea, write that down!"

        Didn't Michael Hudson had that happen to him? When he first wrote Super Imperialism, a lot of State Department freaks wanted to hear him speak, because he had considered angles they hadn't even thought of.
