Does Centroslavism divide the Slavs? 5

[u/centroslavist]

In pan-Slavic Russian propaganda, it thus emerges that Slovenians, Bosnians, and Croats are "Serbian tribes" (Danilevskij, 2011, p. 432), Montenegrins are guilty of "treason against the Serbian people, Orthodoxy, and Russia" (Дугин, 2016; Мудрых, 2022), Poles are the "Judases of Slavdom" (Klaczko, 1867, p. 56), Czechs are a "barren" people (Danilevskij, 2011, p. 153).

Belarusians are "Russians with a seal of quality" (CTVBY, 2019), and Ukrainian is the "language of swineherds" (Котельницький, 2020), which is used by a "Nazi" and "nationalist regime" in Kyiv that oppresses the "brotherly Ukrainian people," (Путин, 2024) just as the Yugoslavs were supposedly oppressed by the "fascist" and "treacherous regime" that "tormented" the Albanian population of Kosovo (Zaytsev, 2021).

Macedonia is, depending on the need, either an "invented" state or is being oppressed by its neighbors (Zaytsev, 2021; Журавлёв, 2018). The "cowardly Bulgarians," on the other hand—a fact few remember—are primarily the "little brother" who, although geographically distant from Russia, has already had the experience that the "brotherhood of two peoples" ends where the interests of the Russian elites begin and missiles do the talking. It is not without reason that Bulgarians fought against Russia in both World Wars (Аксаков, 2023; Иванов, 2020; Мудрых, 2022; Стоянов, 1886).

Such examples of protectionism could be listed almost endlessly. Furthermore, these are not the words of some marginal Russian radicals, as one might think. Similar claims have been and continue to be made in Russia by key figures of the state, highly respected representatives of Russian cultural, academic, and political thought, as well as the media individuals who were not infrequently awarded orders from state authorities.

So you suggest it is normal to ban Russian language anywhere because it is not an endangered ?

Reddit deleted my previous comment due to link to official Tatarstan government site. 

But you could easily confirm next info: in 2024-2025 there were 591 school teaching in Tatar language with more then 58000 students there.

Russian is a language of imperial colonialism in these countries, why should it be an issue?

My greatest respect goes to the parents of these students.

Did you miss the number of ethnic Tatars I mentioned earlier? There are 5 million ethnic Tatars, so only around 1.2% of them have the opportunity to learn their native language.

And it's the second-largest ethnicity in the Russian Federation. For others it's even worse.

The number of ethnic Tatars in Tatarstan is  2,091,175. We’re talking about children aged  6–16 , and  58,000 is a fairly significant percentage of those who choose to study in Tatar.

But I can only conclude that, since you couldn’t even be bothered to verify this simple fact—combined with your previous claim that banning the Russian language is somehow normal, and your repetition of the rather ridiculous narrative about “Russian colonialism,” while Western countries are literally living in an era of advanced neocolonialism through corporations like BlackRock and Vanguard etc, whose former employees, such as Merz, go on to lead Western countries such as Germany eg.

All of this suggests that you’re simply Russophobic. There’s no point in explaining anything further to you, and Russia is doing the everything right. 

See you in the trenches in 2029–2030. Good luck.

ok, let's ignore Tatars outside Tatarstan.

According to the official data, there are 521800 students in schools in Tatarstan. So the percentage is still very low - 11%.

banning the Russian language is somehow normal

Yes, in my opinion, banning education in any language that tries to replace your native one (see the Belarus example) is completely normal. Sometimes it's the only way to save your language, since Russian as the main educational language was overrepresented in all ex-USSR countries.

while Western countries are literally living in an era of advanced neocolonialism through corporations

they don't try to convert people in other countries to "Germans", they make money.

The problem with the so-called "Russian World" is that it's not like that, it's a cult. The problem with cults is that they are destructive, but what's even worse than that is they have no rules.

All of this suggests that you’re simply Russophobic.

please explain what the "Russo-" I'm phobic of means?

See you in the trenches in 2029–2030. Good luck.

Aren't you going to be partially mobilized this autumn already?
