Am I the only one here who is so damn angry about the fact that a large portion of the Slavic representation on the Western media is either Russian, Russian-coded (e.g. the Grisha Universe by Leigh Bardugo) or copies the narratives about other Slavic nations that exist in the Russian discourse about them?

Karczeby

In eastern Poland, the word Karczeb is used to describe a stubborn tree stump as well as a farmer firmly rooted to the land he cultivates. Adam Panczuk’s book gives us a personal look at these people and their way of life.

Dears, I have entered the hate train after watching another movie with the lovely western representation of Slavs and I despise this stereotypical/ hyper-s**ualised portrayal of, male and female, with all my heart and rotten soul. 

I am from a Slavic country and my name is not Svetlana nor Olga and my brother’s name is not Dimitry. I don't know anyone from the mafia, I don't consume alcohol and I don’t steal so you don’t need to hide your gold and tires, I won´t put them in my plastic bag nor will I steal your husband.

Ps: Russia is not the only Slavic Country. The Slavic countries cannot be thrown into one pot. There are cultural, lingual, religious, mythological and other differences. Each country is different and unique.

My thoughts on SSOL as an Eastern European

(First I wanna say l'm not suggesting anything about anyone's sexuality and stuff like that.)

For them putting a clip of Jan in front of a pride flag makes me emotional. I grew up and live in Eastern Europe and I know how much hate you can encounter for posting something like that.

They are from Eastern Europe so they are aware how many negatively they might get (from the media and from ppl in general) because of the clip and the lyrics. Even if they didn't think about this aspect of the song/ video.

I hope they won't get any negative attention because of the song/video.
