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.

Everyone wants to be a US ally until the question of hosting nuclear weapons comes into play. I may well be wrong but this is just pandering, there is no realistic chance Japan will join NATO and therefore be required to host nuclear weapons unless some drastic developments happen.
China and DPRK have nukes, this is a key point and again unless I'm wrong I'm not aware of any major change in the average Japanese taboo regarding nukes recently.
But obviously of course that neoliberal shithole got a completely detached political class so anything is possible.
