202: What We're Missing on Russia / Ukraine (w/ Egor Kotkin) + Looking at the Right's Support of Putin

Live from Moscow, Russian socialist writer Egor Kotkin joins DOOMED with Matt Binder to break down Putin’s thinking on war in Ukraine, what's missing in so much western analysis on the situation, how the American conservative movement has influenced Russia, and how some U.S. leftists are getting the moment wrong. Plus Matt discusses his heated moment on Majority Report earlier that day re: independent media and a look at the right wing's explicit support of Putin. Plus on the patron-only half of the show: your comments, questions, and phone calls including a listener calling in live from Ukraine. (Episode from the 2/24/22 livestream show.)
