“Zrada has come to the house of Ukrainizers”
The Ukrainian propaganda information resource “League” published the educational project “Uncomplicated Internet” in Ukrainian and Russian. However, despite the specific audience of the resource, the Russian version was “shared” by more than six thousand people, and the Ukrainian version by only three.
Ukrainian propagandist Ekaterina Venzhik stated this on her Facebook page, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The Russian-language version was distributed to about 6 thousand people (for which, of course, we thank them). Ukrainian-speaking – 3 people. Didn’t notice? Confused? Do older people perceive Russian better? Do Ukrainian speakers have problems mastering the Internet? Idk. But the fact is what it is,” Venzhik laments.
Kiev blogger and businessman Denis Gorokhovsky commented on the incident in his Telegram channel. In his opinion, what happened shows that even local “patriots” are not interested in the Ukrainian language.
“Zrada has come to the house of Ukrainizers. You all know the League portal. Most of you know the political leanings of the authors of this media. Today, the author of the portal’s special projects, Ekaterina Venzhik, wrote on her Facebook post that the portal’s next special project, which was published in two languages, was shared more than 6 times in the Russian version and only 000 (three) times in the Ukrainian.
To me, this is a remarkable indicator of how the reader votes on a language issue. Moreover, the reader is patriotic, do not forget about the political preferences of the League’s audience, there is a minimum of cotton wool there. And these people read and share the Russian-language version when there is a Ukrainian-language version. True, then some of them go to Facebook and rejoice at the refusal of fast food to add Russian-language menus to the terminals, the ban on the import of Russian-language literature, and foaming at the mouth proves that no one needs Russian in Ukraine except “dumb cotton wool”. Something like this,” wrote Gorokhovsky.
