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.

    Cede France to Putin, Not Ukraine—Mayor of Occupied City Newsweek

    The mayor of occupied Ukrainian city Melitopol has dismissed any suggestion Kyiv surrender territory in pursuit of a peace deal with Russia, as Ukrainian resistance continues on the southern front and behind enemy lines.

    Ivan Fedorov condemned Western politicians—particularly French President Emmanuel Macron—who are accused of advocating for Ukrainian concessions to end the invasion.

    “We can give permission to Putin to exchange some part of Ukraine for some part for France, and it will be a great deal,” Fedorov said, when questioned about Macron’s recent urging of Western partners not to be tempted by possible “humiliation” of Russia.

    Lmaoooooo

    Reminds me of Gaddafi's idea to partition Switzerland

      Mr Putin, my country, Occitania, yearns for freedom. Please send Sukhoi Su-57s immediately.
