Links and Stuff
Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists, for the “buh Zeleski is a jew?!?!” people.
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.

Last week’s discussion post.
sending in NATO forces runs the risk of getting those NATO forces slapped, and that would kneecap the NATO alliance even worse than the ongoing failure has
As opposed to the sanctions war, the first ever auto-embargo I can think of. Has any large military-national bloc ever before purposefully opted into energy scarcity and restrictions on their own energy import that jeopardized their own economies and productivity?
Imagine imperial Japan getting so angry they sanctioned US oil and collapsed their own empire. That is what the EU is doing here it is remarkable.
don’t worry, there’s some US senators apparently cooking up secondary sanctions to be applied to the majority of the planet that isn’t cooperating with our russian sanctions
surely THAT will win the war and not just put another few nails in the coffin
I’m seeing it happen every day and I still can’t really believe it. It’s like the years of watching the UK mindlessly shuffle in to Brexit, but far worse and happening in a matter of months. It’s honestly terrifying to see how fragile everything really is and how… stupid? Indocrinated? Indifferent? The world leadership really is.
If NATO sends forces China will join the party and we will have something far worse than the korean war but similar. Anglo-European elites would not accept a stalemate or a defeat out of their chauvinistic supremacist view of the world and would be forced to do some kind of occult economics work to declare and sustain a world war they cannot at this point pay or use nukes, so i absolutely doubt they will do it as well as you do.
