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.
"A runaway Nazi tried to pretend to be a mother of two children Yulia Paevskaya - call sign Tyra - was caught when she tried to escape from Azovstal in a medical service car. She claimed to be a mother of two children and injured. However, the children who were with her said that this Nazi shot their parents [!!] and threatened to kill them. Now she is waiting for her harsh sentence." https://t.me/ZandVchannel/14654
I think we should let gravity be judge, jury, and executioner :pit:
Here's more about the monster, by one of Russian military correspondents (https://t.me/voenkor_evtushenko/707):
"Azov" and its fantastic creatures... At the beginning of liberation of Mariupol, at the city exit in the direction of Mangush/Berdyansk, an ambulance was stopped. A driver with woman who looked like a Swedish lesbian and two kids. Her name is "Taira" (Yulia Paevskaya). She worked in "Azov" as paramedic, her group was called "Angels of Taira".
As people who knew her from the Donetsk pre-war sports community told me, she knew oriental medicine and martial arts. And she had a strange, weird habit - she loved to pull out (or tear or...not sure how to translate "выдергивать" properly) the shoulder joints of men at aikido seminars!? Unnecessarily, for fun. Thus not surprising that she murdered the parents of these children from the ambulance... And she tried to intimidate the children in order to pretend to be their mother - a plot with German spy from "The Moment of Truth".
I think Tyra should be hanging first (He is alluding to the existing death sentence in DPR) .
:not-good:
Ah, certainly not the most politically correct way to put it - anyway I just translated.
I don't mind mocking her for looking like a damn swed but using lesbian as an insult is fuck3d
I have no sympathy for the western side in this war but the transphobia and homophobia of Russian Telegram is really nasty and cringe.
I'd take everything the Russian press says with a little bit of salt.
Nonono, these are random telegram posts, they must be true.
