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.
Interesting thread on the history of Azov. A lot of stuff I had no idea of before. https://twitter.com/RWApodcast/status/1528023220225466374?t=Gzkf87bTJKH7A4UX1bqewA&s=19
RWA seems to have been a decent source throughout the conflict but not sure what their politics are like. (Other than pro-Russia winning the war)
If you really want to know
Oh for fucks sake :fash-bash:
:yea:
Tbf, they do actually seem to be a pretty good source for info on the war in Ukraine, so I wouldn't totally dismiss them. Just don't ask them about their opinions on WW1, or contemporary Russian politics, or really anything that doesn't relate to the war in Ukraine lol
lol "russia was winning ww1". Thats a knee slapper.
i love the vague "guess by whom" too, lmao. motherfucker is really buying into century old propaganda about the bolsheviks being german agents
