Yesterday I spent some time checking French, Belgian, mainstream media TV "treatment" of the 🇷🇺War against Ukraine 🇺🇦

My starting point is obviously my own experience and few years of mapping Telegram ecosystems and 5 months of War tracking, archival & amplifyukraine
French TV is really nuts, they spend most of the air time relaying extract you can get from @JuliaDavisNews but with the French commentary, often superficial, sensational and I must say : biased, my impression was that French TV's are mostly relaying Russian Propaganda in the
Name of "commenting it", why? Because they don't bring any other perspective, certainly not from a Ukrainian perspective, they keep coming back to Russian propaganda and Russian threats against Europe, UK or anyone else without clearly, bluntly countering the propaganda.

there’s a simple reason why genocide in ukraine also turbo-charged public acceptance of queer ukrainians. equality and diversity are quintessentially ukrianian and anti-colonial values

Before all the westsplainers beginning on this let me, a Ukrainian who grew up in Moldova, give my opinion on this issue. 1/9 🧵
First and foremost, Moldova has been a part of this from the start. It might not be obvious to those of you that know nothing of our history but let me start by saying that Moldova as a county has only existed for 30 years. 2
Before the USSR occupation, it was Romanians’ territory. While other parts like the ones my family are from in Transnistria were a part of Ukraine. So that being said, there are a LOT of Ukrainians in Moldova (ehm me). 3

today was a good reminder for me that i should never be ashamed of practicing compassionate, empathetic journalism — because that’s actually how you do real service to your audience and invite them to relate
for years i’ve been contemplating of leaving journalism behind. i thought i was the problem — caring too much about the stories i cover, seeing personal stakes in them, building all these emotional bridges to people i’d feature
turns out the western idea of journalism that trained me is the real problem. this toxic, colonial straitjacket conditioning you for rigid emotional divorce from the stories you cover — borderline sociopathic

🧵: Making sure your Ukraine coverage is Ukraine-centered. Rampant russian propaganda has planted false narratives for years and the West views russian aggression and Ukraine's prospects through its own subjective lens. The solution: consuming a range of Ukrainian content. 1/14
Ukrainian English-language independent media deliver breaking news, first-person narratives, and glimpses into Ukrainian life, culture, and history. They are experts on the Ukrainian context. 2/14
