Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict

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.

      I don't see how you can do whatever financial magic of conjuring trillions of dollars out of nothing to solve supply-side issues.

      Yes all economic metrics are terrible. We are seeing hyperinflation, stagnation, contracting GDP, collapsing securities markets and global movement away from USD. But don’t worry. It’s going to be good and fine, we have momentum

      capitalist economists literally have no idea what they're talking about. it's like asking someone who makes car advertisements about the aerodynamics of a car.

      Its not going to happen.

      If it happens then it wont be that bad. <---

      It is bad but we will recover soon.

      It is taking longer to recover but when it does it will be even stronger than before.

      OK we didn't recover because the government is interfering with the free market and this is why we need more reforms, America lost competitiveness, this is how we recover.

      Lotta libs believe that the economy works mostly on willpower of the central administrators. So one of the most important parts of the job as Federal Reserve Bank President is to minimize the amount of panic in the market, even if that includes blatant lying.
