Tankies are just anti-West conservatives. Same "Just World theory" except they hide their demand for being bigots behind veneer of pseudoleftist theory.
Just like the far-right of the west, they believe in rule by perceived merit. They just have a different idea of what merit looks like.
Unfortunately, rule by a small privileged class is oligarchy at best, fascism at worst, regardless of what system of merit you use to define who should rule. Not that they'll ever grasp that.
The vyshyvanka not only speaks of its Ukrainian origin but also of the particular region in which it was made. The knowing eye could detect where a person hailed from by the clothes on their back. Embroidery is thus an important craft within Ukraine and different techniques exist to suit local styles with their own particular patterns and colours. Traditionally, the thread was coloured according to local formulas using bark, leaves, flowers, berries and so on. In this way, the local environment is literally reflected in the colour of the embroidery.

You don't even need to work to find the projection. He just offers it up.

Dangit, I'm not even sure what I did this time!
I've never wanted Slavic heritage so badly as I do now.

I give you the pass to wear vyshyvanka and dance hopak by the power vested in me by my heritage. You are henceforth an honorary Ukrainian.

Does Bloomcole use an alias? I can't find the active account so I can ask someone to ban them from Feddit.

This is an older screenshot I found as I was cleaning things out, they might already be banned from their home instance.

I'm happy to see Drag is still around. I feel like I haven't seen Drag since switching to quokk.au.

This is an older screenshot from my folders I found when cleaning things out, it's not recent. I don't think I've seen Drag around for a while.
