I was born in a western country but have a very Russian sounding name. Already had coworkers give me shit like I personally invaded Ukraine. Knowing how dumb your average American is anyone vaguely eastern European is going to be labelled a Russian too. Seeing how openly xenophobic people are on the internet and how little pushback it gets is genuinely kinda terrifying to me. Anyone else feel worried about this shit?
Oh god are we gonna start seeing shootings in russian churches now? :sadness-abysmal:
Even dumber yet: Someone is going to shoot up an Ukrainian Orthodox church because "It had those Russian-looking onion domes"
Tell them you're Ukrainian. Or Polish or Bulgarian. They can't tell the difference between Slavic names anyways.
vladmir, volodymyr I'm surprised they even tell the difference?
I'm really sorry to hear that comrade. I'm worried about several friends and colleagues of mine even here in the UK.
The more I hear about websites and certain governments wanting to punish regular Russians, the more worried I get.
i have a manager who asks me jokingly during the start of covid until now how i like the police state measure à la communist china.
I just told him i prefer Plato's Republic instead
