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.

    🇬🇧🇺🇦⚡Putin is making gradual, slow but tangible progress in Ukraine, British Prime Minister Johnson says

    He also suggested that Zelensky create an alliance against Russia as an alternative to the European Union. According to media reports, the foundation of the association is distrust of Brussels and Germany's response to Russia's aggression.

    In addition to the UK and Ukraine, it may include Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania

    The Br*tish wants the Ukraine to create an extra-Russophobic knock-off of the EU.

    First of all I thought the Ukraine war was supposed to have united the west more than ever, and here they are making clubs to exclude the less bloodthirsty countries of the west.

    Second of all, does this have any realistic chance of ever becoming reality? And what will they be able to do to interfere in the war that they are not already doing? Will they do something that would be able to escalate the war by provoking a Russian response?

      Nah lmao. No country will actually commit to an alliance with Ukraine. They will only talk about how they are ready to join anyday now and leave it at that once the headlines die out.
