      whatever 'looking eastern european' even means. like people in my czech community here in usa can only be a difference to average americans based on accents and many of us are fluent

      if anything i type more like an eastern european than i look and sound. typing in czech and switch back to english completely fucks my grammar and spelling and word choice up lol

          weirdly i get comments that my parents sound like they have german accents which tbh is pretty insulting lmao

          if i speak to other czech people in english i sometimes steal their accent on accident and then just go back to boring normal english later lol

      Yes, thank you! I think this is so spot on. The multipolar world does not seem to me to hearken a better world for socialist organizing. Everything we're seeing in the reaction to this and the way that Russia is framing it supports the fascist nationalist worldview of competition between nations and races. Online is nothing but fascists champing at the bit (and of course liberals and conservatives always show their fascist idealization when a nationalist war presents itself). If anything good comes of it, maybe it will be the weaking of the dollar hegemony, but exactly how that the play out, I don't know.
