No updates on Thursdays.
September 16th's mini-update is here, because western journalists are bad at their jobs. Here's the in-thread comment.
Today and tomorrow I'm gonna be doing some prep as I'm moving in a few weeks. The updates will continue as planned on Monday.
:Care-Comrade: to you all.
Links and Stuff
Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists, for the “buh Zeleski is a jew?!?!” people.
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.
Denmark is way more fash than Sweden. In Sweden the other political parties agreed not to let the Nazis get any influence no matter what and to pretend their seats don't exist. That agreement lasted for decades and has been bitterly denounced in Denmark as "undemocratic".
The Danish political establishment went in the opposite direction when neofascism became politically prominent in the 1990's. The right wing used the fash seats in parliament to gain power. Meanwhile the social democrats embarked on a journey as old as centrist triangulation: They started at "we'll give the working class a little racism as a treat so they won't vote fascist" in the 1990's to today's social democrats who sees it as politically essential that they are at least as racist as the fascists.
In the current Danish political climate you won't be taken serious unless you support stuff like banning non-whites from moving into cheap social housing and any discussion of racism as anything other than something done by a handful of skinhead losers makes you a woke leftist extremist.
