Cultural Observations. Stupid Stuff.

Last night I was watching a movie where one of the leads was supposedly Russian, but he was obviously a Celt (kelt). And I felt a bit like I was watching someone in blackface: annoyed, disrespectful, and honestly, it harmed suspension of disbelief. There are a lot of tribes among the slavic peoples, and here in Ukraine, while I can’t make them all out – and they are all mixed together with germanic peoples – I can tell Celts from Germans, from Scandinavians, from Poles, from Czechs, from Hungarians, from Slovenians, from the Sythians from the groups with black hair and long heads which I don’t know how to identify (but they scare my genes), from the White Russians, Rus/Ukrainians, Asiatic Russians, from the turkic peoples. But there are others I have no idea where they are from.

It’s really beautiful. But lets drop the blackface. It’s revolting really.
