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.

Last week's discussion post.
I think the latest one, which they just resolved, has costed the airline about a billion DKK in lost revenue according to the spokesperson they had crying on TV. It's actually insane how much money this airline generates and how badly they fuck it up every 3-5 years.

I've been arguing that since day 1 of the strike.
IMO basically every airline could be state-owned, or maybe a large cooperative. it makes no fucking sense to run airlines for profit and it hasn't for years, the industry as a whole massively subsidized and regulated already. SAS and also Norwegian Air have been losing money for years to the point where Sweden and Norway both cut them off from more capital since 2022 for SAS and 2020 for Norwegian.
