One of the core policies of Wikipedia, remaining from its inception, is neutrality.
en.wikipedia.org/…/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_vie…
This fully applies to describing international conflicts and wars. If you find Wikipedia biased, there are two things you can do:
- Collect credible evidence, and suggest edits
- Check if you are biased yourself

The classic ones are “шиншилла” and “лишишься”, although the latter could be extended to “лишившийся”. 11 u’s for the latter, if my calcultations are correct.

You were telling about cultures worth preserving - and by your definition, most of the cultures you list were not worth preserving and should have become extinct. Good thing that they were preserved even through the worst of times.

About half of these countries were militaristic authoritarianist shitholes, some even not that long ago by historical measures.
Yet, all these cultures have proliferated, and you consider them worthy of studying. Same idea here. Give it time.

True lol
But figuring out just how much “u” you need to write, or how many are there, is a bit tedious without the language experience.

A casual reminder is that Slavs are a diverse group of people not united by the same ideas and political agenda.
If your worry is association with Russia specifically, several Slavic countries are actively anti-Russia and are parts of NATO.
Ukraine is Slavic, too.

I mean, actual Russians are native Russian speakers and majority sees through Chekist bullshit, so this checks out!
- Comment on Is it a bad idea to learn Russian because of everything? 4 weeks ago:
Shout out to Interslavic! This is a language that is comprised of common words and roots from all Slavic languages, all united under consistent rules.
Learning it will enable you to understand all Slavs to a good degree, and they will in turn understand you very well.
Knowing 2 Slavic languages (3 if we count basic Czech), I can confirm it works.

Russian culture spans way beyond whatever Putin’s currently doing, and has given the world an immense cultural, scientific, historic heritage.
Trying to cancel and destroy Russian culture is akin to destroying German culture and heritage just because one German dude with a weird moustache decided to start Holocaust.
Would be a tragedy to lose either.
- Comment on Is it a bad idea to learn Russian because of everything? 4 weeks ago:
As a Russian myself, it depends.
Do you want to explore classic Russian literature without translation losses? Explore the cultural ties of Russians and how language and culture affects history and politics? Figure out what Russian politicians are saying? Hang out with Russians somewhere? Finally figure out how to wrote the word “лишишься” in cursive?
If at least one answer is “yes”, go ahead! It’s not easy, but quite rewarding. If you just want to dip your toes a little, however, and feel like you grasp something, there are better options.

People commonly have a choice not to drive a car in the first place.
Though cultural pressures, as well as some specific areas being genuinely hard to reach, pushes many people towards it anyway. But if you have a choice, choose public.

Fast lane is for driving at the speed limit. If the front driver goes by the limit, you hold no right to complain.
Do not normalize speeding.

- Comment on How do you beat post-work floppiness? 1 month ago:
Aside from a really good advice on putting activity before home, make sure you sleep enough.
While it may sound tempting to have a few extra hours in the evening, the way you spend them when you’re exhausted is meaningless.
When you get proper sleep, you may have a bit less time on your hands, but you can actually turn the time you do have into something nice.
Trust me - you’ll thank yourself for this when you find out you still have energy after your work.
