I swear to god, one more "commonwealth was like a happy marriage" and I'm shooting the air

I think studying history via reddit/quora without 1)learning it from actual textbooks 2)talking with actual country representatives is useless. Just now, I saw "We did not colonize them! There were several of our clerics and that's all!... well, later they made several dozens of language suppression rebellions but we did not colonize them!"

#man i wish i could reread my Ukrainian history books #more like an abusive harem but whatever #Poland was better than moscovia at all times ofc #but it doesn't change the fact commonwealth wasn't something happy for Ukrainians Belarus and Lithuanians #it was such a happy marriage that Belarus people invented a whole new slur for Polish people specifically #(which they almost don't use nowadays but the fact itself)
