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.

    Well the normalisation of lynching Russians Has started. I wonder how long it'll be before Russians are sent to concentration camps.

        Imagine what a confederation of Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegonia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia would look like! Why has nobody done this before?!

      Pro-war Russians better stick with holidaying in Russia. They likely won't be welcomed anywhere else in Europe the world.

      India, China, nearly anywhere in Africa, most places of South America should be fine tbh. They may have to watch out in "international community" countries, though.
