Did I say their race matters? I just said you need to know the meaning behind them.
I wouldn’t be surprised. Everybody gets offended.

Oh wait. You weren’t replying to me 
I don’t understand people guarding their culture to this point. I mean that they bash someone for using it without understanding. Stop treating culture as your own thing. It’s not your private right of owning this culture, just because your ancestors created it.
I love when other people notice and use Russian culture. If they don’t understand it - let it be. Probably they just enjoy it, and I see nothing wrong with that. And I am happy to tell them more about it if they want.

They sure do! Lol. It’s okay though. Because on one hand it is kinda annoying, but on the other hand, it is fun to make fun of them for being so sensitive about such nothing. LOL
Does it bother anybody that JK Rowling is saying that Hermoine is black now or “always has been”, even though she described her in the book as having a “white face”?

Hey, what’s an Ushanka?
It means taking ones culture and claiming it as your own, stealing it, and not knowing the meaning behind the clothing or hair, etc. I think you are confusing cultural appreciation.

Am I supposed to capitalize Ushanka, or is it ushanka like that?
I love her books, but I was so disappointed with this. It seemed like she gave up on herself to the whole left critique.

Yeah, seems like a silly question, sure, but I don’t know anything about Russian culture at all. I mean…my extent of Russian culture is basically…
Communism bad.
XD I have no idea how the economy works, what unique things you guys do…besides fight and eat bears and are basically resistant to frostbite (lol) but yeah! XD
i don’t think it’s about readers.
I think at that point she was enough with being criticized for various things, including not including enough POC (not my words, tho, that’s what I read).

Right? I feel like people should just educate themselves and just be civil. It’s like no one can have an opinion without being called something. It is funny though to watch someone make a fool of themselves.

She should have left it as it is. She shouldn’t try to make excuses and add them in last minute when we really know…–
