East Europe - Blog Posts
shout out to my grandpa for giving me asymmetrical eyes
"east europeans didnt experience oppression and discrimination, theyre white" what a way to say you're an ignorant amerimutt who only sees POC as marginalized, sarah
because if you'd bother to look beyond your yard you'd see a lot of anti-immigrant rhetoric in the west is targeted at e-euros too
if you'd bother to use your fucking brain for a mo you'd realize that a lot of leftists love glorifying the soviet union dismissing any harm they done to east europe, claiming those against the red boot are "fascists" and "reactionaries"
but i guess go on and continue thinking it's only about america being a bitch towards those with nonwhite skin color 🙄
I really hope Jack Edwards chokes. "Oh look we made Dostoevsky number one bestseller on Amazon!" as if that fucking guy needed any hype. Maybe you can spend all this time and energy promoting books and authors that truly are not represented? I don’t know, make a video on Georgian literature, spend hours trying to find at least one English translation of the biggest Lithuanian authors? Of course, it’s going to be hard, all of the money was spend on English translations of Russian authors and all of us had only last 33 years trying to do anything to promote our culture while you all were simping for chauvinists, who hated the bare existence of us. Google at least the names of prominent Polish and Latvian authors. What are their names? What were they writing about? Could they afford to write about some highly intellectual suffering while their nations were balancing between life and death? Read the names of modern Ukrainian writers that were killed in the last 2 years. Who killed them? What would they think of Dostoevsky? Were they the "trembling beast" or "did they have the right"? Literature does teach a lot and for some reason the countries that were (are) under Russian attacks don’t like Dostoevsky, why his philosophical thought is so pathetic in our eyes? Do some research, then we’ll talk.
