1. Hate always is...I knew quite a few people from that area when I lived in New York.

My Mother in law's landlord was from that region. I never saw more bigoted people ever. And I had lived in the South as a child off and on.

2. Rudy's friends?

8. Exactly what I was thinking.

3. WTF?! Do any African ethnicities even live there?!

What's black to them? Romanians?

Or are they paid by Putin's allies?

Edit:
To perhaps answer my own question, there was a BLM protest over there by FIVE students from Africa back in June.

Edit2: Removed the link to that SUPPOSED BLM protest in Ukraine back in June after reading more from that website! All of the other stories seemed to promote white supremacy!

9. That would be my question.

What is with these people? How can they be so up in arms against race when they are so fucking lily white? Who are they protesting against? They just seem ridiculous.

4. I don't know their language, but...

... that song playing in that background reminded me of country music. So I'll guess the song was about thanking God for all his freedumbs.

Democracy activists stranded after Trump admin pulls funding for anti-censorship tools

Democracy activists facing surveillance in Belarus pleaded for help, but the funding freeze meant a government-backed U.S. nonprofit had to turn them down


The Trump administration has undercut democracy activists in Belarus and Hong Kong by abruptly ending funding to a U.S. internet freedom organization that provides technological tools to evade censorship and surveillance, according to cyber experts and lawmakers.

The organization, a nonprofit called the Open Technology Fund, said the sudden disappearance of $20 million has forced it to cancel plans to deliver emergency aid to journalists and civil society groups facing authoritarian clampdowns in Belarus and Hong Kong.

This and your OP sounds like a well coordinated global effort of Steve Bannon & Trump's dictator regimes.

Bannon has been travelling the globe pushing the same Supremacist control he began in the US before 2016.

Bannon has a lot of support & money for this supremacist rise in foreign power Nations as he does in the US.

Something like that is going on.

10. And of course they are hating the Jews...I know it's not fancy but....

Nationalist marchers in Kyiv say Ukraine is under ‘occupation’ by ‘Jewish clan’

Participants in a nationalist march in Ukraine raised a banner decrying the country’s “occupation and robbery” by a “Jewish clan.”

The banner, aimed at Ukraine’s Jewish president, Vlodymyr Zelensky, appeared Wednesday at the annual OUN-UPA March, which is named for Ukrainian nationalist movements that for a time sided with Adolf Hitler against the Soviet Union.

“Celebrating the anniversary of the occupation and robbery of Ukraine by the Dnipro Jewish clan of Vova Zelensky,” the read the billboard-sized banner that was displayed in front of Zelensky’s office.

Zelensky, who was elected last year, has implicitly criticized the glorification of wartime collaborators, telling the Times of Israel earlier this year that it would be better to name monuments and streets in the country after people “whose names do not provoke conflict.” Dnipro is a city in eastern Ukraine with a large Jewish community.

11. Slavs and Germans have been fighting Mongols, Turks, and Jews for centuries in Eastern Europe

The Austro-Hungarian Empire was the bulwark against the Turks in the Balkans. The Russian Empire was the bulwark against the Turks in the Caucasus and Caspian area and against the Mongols in Central Asia.
