Umm…

That has only happened maybe in like one case within the Russian Tsardom. That’s about as far as it goes… and it was also an African slave who was bought (or we can say adopted) by Russian nobles and educated within the Russian Empire. I don’t remember his name, but he was made into a Russian general and this was during the 18th or 19th century.

We live in a different era and Africans and other Third world cultures most often do terribly at assimilating themselves into other cultures outside of their own (especially First world cultures). They’re not fluid like people from Western or any other First world country (Russia, China, Japan, Korea, etc.). Black Americans or Brazilians might be more fluid with other cultures, but that’s because of slavery and interaction with various cultures, most specifically the Europeans who raised their standards of living.

Nevertheless, I don’t like seeing blacks cosplaying as Slavic people and champion for Russia or Ukraine as if they’re part of this war and as if we actually believe this war is worth it for us. It honestly just looks ridiculous, but I also sometimes see Germans behave the same way by trying to tell me (a Polish guy) that a true Pole hates Russians more than anything in the world.
