Ukrainian Minister Did Not Pass a Required Language Exam

Ministers in Ukraine are required to pass an exam in the Ukrainian language because the Ukrainian language is really widespread in Ukraine, especially among the elite. The Ukrainian minister of education, Oksen Lisovy failed to submit a language examination as required.

What does this tell you, either the minister does not know Ukrainian well enough to confidently pass the exam, or he is flaunting the law. Likely both, and both is possible in Ukraine. I just wonder whether the Svidomites would stage violent protests against him…

All Russians are Bad for Ukrainian Nationalists

I have watched the above interview on New Atlas, and the the two are puzzled about Ukraine’s drone attacks on random targets within Russia. They are saying that such attacks only make Ukraine look bad even in the eyes of Russians that might have been previously supportive of Ukraine. This in my opinion shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how the Ukrainian nationalism operates.

The fundamental essence of the Ukrainian nationalism is Russophobia. Without it, the Ukrainian nationalism loses the major reason for being. It comes down to the peculiar history of the Ukrainian nationalism, Ukrainians were once Russians and their existence is based on conflict with Russia, this is their mission. To the Ukrainian nationalist, no Russian is a good Russian. The only good Russian is that Russian who declares himself a Ukrainian and renounces his Russianhood. Some early Ukrainian nationalists were like this, for instance Dmytro Dontsov. And contemporary Ukraine is crawling with such types.

The Ukrainian nationalist have an interest in waging war against the Russians, they do not have the interest in changing the regime in Russia. The latter is wanted by liberal interest groups in the West, who erroneously think the Ukrainian nationalists are their allies. In 2014, they were all claiming Ukraine will become a liberal mirror to totalitarian Russia, and the Russians will rise up against Putin in response. Same kind of thinking as displayed in the video. Soon enough, it became clear the Ukrainian nationalists have no interest in this…

Ukrainian Nationalist Song on Munich Pride

Eat Pray Love Author Cancels Book to Placate Svidomites

For the meaning of “svidomite” see the glossary…

From CNN:

Elizabeth Gilbert has announced that she will halt the release of her next book after facing backlash because the story is set in Russia.

The “Eat, Pray, Love” author says her upcoming novel, titled “The Snow Forest,” has upset Ukrainians because their country is currently at war with Russia. It was set to be released in February 2024.

Gilbert said she needed to listen to her Ukranian readers, who expressed sorrow and disappointment over the story being set in Russia.

“Over the course of this weekend, I have received an enormous, massive outpouring of reactions and responses from my Ukrainian readers, expressing anger, sorrow, disappointment and pain, about the fact that I would choose to release a book into the world right now,” Gilbert said Monday in a video she posted to her social media accounts. “I want to say that I have heard these messages and read these messages, and I respect them. As a result, I’m making a course correction, and I’m removing the book from its publication schedule.”

According to Gilbert, the book is “set in the middle of Siberia in the middle of the last century and told the story of a group of individuals who made a decision to remove themselves from society to resist the Soviet government and to try to defend nature against industrialization.”

Retarded virtue signaling by an author that penned a divorce porn memoir. About Eat, Pray, Love from Wikipedia:

She spent four months in Italy, eating and enjoying life (“Eat”). She spent three months in India, finding her spirituality (“Pray”).[7] She ended the year in Bali, Indonesia, looking for “balance” of the two and fell in love with a Brazilian businessman (“Love”), whom she later married and divorced.

This shit was later televised featuring a post-wall Julia Roberts. Hopefully it mentions the settlement from the divorce that allowed her to travel…

The Ethnonym “Ukrainian” is Allegedly Sounding Like a Slur to Polish People

I have a working knowledge of Polish, and can understand it, especially in written form. But any intricacies of the language are foreign to me.

I don’t know how genuine problem this is but the ethnonym “Ukrainian” has entered circulation rather recently, and it comes from Polish. The first to speak of Ukrainian nation (украинская народность) was the historian Nikolai Kostomarov in an essay titled “Two Russian nationalities.” Where he said there are two branches of Russians, Greater Russians and Ukrainians. This however cannot be considered the first use of the ethnonym Украинец.

The latter was adopted by some circles by the end of the nineteenth century but remained widespread among political activists and intellectuals only. By the outbreak of the First World War and especially towards its end, this identification got more currency. (See my posts here and here and here). I recall Oles’ Buzyna saying that the ethnonym “Ukrainian” was first officially used in the Austro-Hungarian military in 1916, on the orders of Emperor Karl I.

Otherwise it took root in 1920s during Soviet Korenizatsiya…
