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.
According to the party chairman of the Swedish Communist Party, the Left Party(the demsocs who got support from DSA for anti-NATO activism) have ordered their local groups to not cooperate with the Communist Party in anti-NATO agitation.
Succdems hate communists more than they love any of their stated policy goals.
how did that go last time around again? is there any sort of historical precedent for this? surely it can't backfire for them to allow the communists to become the only anti-war party when ~40% of swedes still don't support NATO membership even at a time of war drums and chest beating, and that figure will surely rise as the war gets old and the consequences worsen.
