@FLy1nRabBit russians are not slavs, they use language with slavic origin.

@SunOS10 does native people of Buryatia considered Slavs? Does English speaking natives in India considered British? Slavs are origins from particular tribes in Central Europe, moderns russians has absolutely different origin (including Moscovia, that was renamed into russian empire in 18 century). Google for history of modern russian language and you will know that it is completely artificial. Moreover, native russians committed multiple entocides to natives of Siberia and forced them to use russian language.

@SunOS10 you answered your own question, yet for some reason you continue to argue. Why?

@hans-ty7cr main pitfalls of russian history are mystifications. 1) During empire times, the main mystification - is to prove that empire originates from Rus (google for Moscovia and documents about Rurik - non-existing person, that was described for first time 300 years after his death, in single source). Analogy here is Holy Roman Empire. 2) During soviet times, the main mystification - is soviet role in WW2 (propaganda introduced concept of "Great Homeland War", it starts in 1941). Modern rusians, especially older generations, have no idea about soviet alliance with Germany in 1939 - 1941. 3) Since 2000th, both mystifications are core part of modern russian ideology. You can go to jail by discussing soviet role in WW2. An easy way to ruin this mystifications is to read original works of russian historians. Finding trustworthy russian history in short is challenging, i hope that modern historians will do it in close future.

@DoctorDoofenshmirtz it is easier than you think, although you need to be speak russian to have better understanding. And also dig into history too

@atomictheprotogen6816 Slavs emerged from some tribes on territory of modern Ukraine, Poland and Slovakia. They are not descendants of romans and had own language and religion. Slavs become orthodox in 988 in Kyiv (state of Rus) and this religion was enforced to other tribes, controlled by Rus. Please keep in mind that Poland is also slavic country, although it's religion is catholic. It is also important to notize that Rus has no connection to modern russians, it is like "Roman Empire" and "Holy Roman Empire" - sounds similar, in reality it is two different states with loose connection. To avoid this confusion, some sources are using names Kyiv Rus, Kievan Rus, it is completely artificial name.

@Silenceeify google for Moscovia and it's history. Just image that Holy Roman Empire didn't collapse till now, uses own Latin-based language and considers itself "true" Roman Empire and "true" romans 😆😆😆

@DoctorDoofenshmirtz it is good to see educated person! The main problem of this topic is that modern russians are using fake historical justifications for modern aggressive wars. That's why it is important to dig into history and show that Moscovia (real predecessor of modern russian state) is had non-slavic origin.

@cactuslietuva in case of Germany, this punishment is reasonable and it was introduced after WW2 to suppress nazi ideology. In case of russians, this punishment is brand new and it's goal is to preserve modern russian ideology. Motivation behind it is purely pragmatic: modern russian government managed to create this new ideology on top of soviet lie about WW2 and imperial lie about it's origin. It is essential component of russian aggressive wars against ex-soviet countries (Moldova, Georgia, Ukraine), because russian government can point finger at any country, falsely accuse it it of being neo-nazi, and russians will be happy to invade this country. That's why it is important for russian government to suppress attempts to publicly discuss active soviet role in start of WW2 (Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, Winter war etc) and soveit atrocities during WW2 (assaults on women in Germany, mass looting, multiple genocides of small nations inside soviet union etc), because it can potentially make modern russian ideology (anti-human and imperial in nutshell) less effective.

@cactuslietuva according to modern russian ideology, Ribbentrop and Molotov pact is fake. USSR was in alliance with Germany in 1939 - 1941, saying it publicly in modern russia will be prosecuted. Only totalitarian state will prosecute own citizens for telling widely known facts about WW2.
1
@cactuslietuva modern russian regime will send you to jail for telling true facts about WW2, that contradict modern russian ideology (for example - about soviet invasion into Poland in 1939). They will also put you in jail if you will spread any information about russian army war crimes or atrocities in Ukraine.

@dust_gale3108 small correction: "it is like saying that some English speaking ex-colony in Africa is considered British or Germanic by it's origin"
1
@cactuslietuva my point that only true totalitarian state in 21 century will punish own people for admitting true facts from own history. That's why ressian government will put own people into jail for raising unpleasant facts about soviet-nazi alliance in 1939-1941. And you can't compare it to punishment for Holocaust denial in modern Germany, because Holocaust is real fact.

@yankeehunter4726 Rus in 9-12 century is name of particular territory in Ukraine (around Kyiv - capital of Rus). in 18 century, Moscovian king decided to stole this name (in order to justify territorial claims to a territory of Rus) and that's how "rossia" (that's how russians pronounce own country name) emerged. Moscovians took Greek version of the name Rus😆 russia (russians are saying "rossia") - is modern "Holy Roman Empire". completely fake.

@kevin1294 Is this what in ruzzian schools are teaching? Ukraine as country mentioned since 17th century (Bogdan Hmelnitskiy as ruler of Ukraine signed a treaty with tsar of Moscovia, but was betrayed by moscovitians later). During that time, your country name was Moscovia (it is the way how your own officials are naming own country in own documents). Only in 18th century Moscovian tsar Petr The First renamed own country to Rossia (greek version of already non-existing Rus, predecessor of Ukraine), and you are using this totally wrong name till now.
