РОИССЯ ВПЕРДЕ! (ROISSYA VPERDE!)

РОИССЯ ВПЕРДЕ (Roissja vperde) is a Russian-language meme mocking ultranationalism, poverty, corruption, and autocracy in modern Russia during the adminstation of Putin.

In proper Russian pronunciation, this hilarious slogan should be: "Rah-EE-syah f-peer-DYEH".

It is derived from the words "роиться" (roit'sja, to swarm) and "в пердеть" (v pirdjet', to fart), playing around with the nationalistic slogan "Россия, вперёд" (Rossija, vpirjod, "Russia, go forward!"): "роиться в пердеть!" ("swarming into an ass!")

In English, Роисся вперде! can be translated as "Russia is ruined", "Russia is going down the drain", or "Russia is going to hell".

This meme comes from a picture of a wrongly-printed belt buckle in 2008.

Satirical names of countries

Some countries' peoples make up names to mock their own countries:

America:

Murrica - mocking southerners' speech, associated with backwardsness. Murrica mocks the excessive nationalism, gun violence, corruption, and racism found in the United States.

Australia:

Straya - mocking social ills

Russia:

РОИССЯ (Roissja)

РОИССЯ ВПЕРДЕ (Roissja Vperde: either "Russia, [go] forward" or "swarming into farting/an arse") - mocking excessive nationalism and poor social conditions in Russia.

Considered very offensive to Russian nationalists, who accuse people who use the term of racism against ethnic Russians.

Горжусь Россией (Gorzhusj Rossjei: "I am proud of Russia!") - same as above, but focused on nationalism.

Malaysia:

Malaysia Boleh ("Malaysia can do it!") - mocking our country's "capability" to suffer high amounts of corruption and constantly fail.

Bolehland ("the land that can [fail]") - ditto.

China:

天朝 (tian chao, "heavenly dynasty") - formerly a name to honour China's gods and deified emperors, now modern-day bloggers use the term to mock corruption in the Mainland Chinese government.

種花家 (Zhong Hua Jia; "planting flowers' family", a pun on 中華, Zhonghua, "the middle civilisation")

Thailand:

กะลาแลนด์ (ka-laa laen, "coconut-minded land") - mocking Thailand's backwards attitude

ตอแหลแลนด์ (taw-hlae laen, "land of hypocrites")

ไทย (thai, "Thai") - only in Thailand, poor-quality.

Russian terms, slogans, and hashtags used by pro-war nationalists

In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine this year, the defenders of the instigator Putin emerge on Twitter and various other websites with many slogans and memes. According to them:

• "Ukraine keeps bombing the Russian-majority towns in the east"
• "Russia will protect these two 'republics', Donbass and Luhansk."
• "Ukraine supports Nazism (Azov Battalion), so Russia must occupy the country to eliminate Nazism"
• "Ukraine might bring NATO to invade Russia if it becomes part of the EU, so Russia must occupy Ukraine to force it to become a buffer state"
• (hardliner nationalists) "Ukraine is a puppet state [by the Jews/West/America/insert scapegoat conspiracy], so Russia must make it south Russia"

Here, I shall translate them into English for you to understand.

• #мненестыдно - мне нестыдно (Mnje njestydno) - "I am not ashamed"
• "Not ashamed" to support Putin's war against Ukraine.
• #путинмойпрезидент - путин мой президент (Putin moj Prezident) - "Putin my president"
• Putin has become popular due to his policies causing an economic recovery, and conservative Christian nationalism that might seem to be "resistant" to American domination.
• Putin has also become popular with nationalist and far-right groups in America and Western countries, not only due to his strict form of Christian, conservative nationalism but also for supporting their groups. He has also become popular with racialist, alt-right, and fascist groups as well - which is rather ironic for him to fight other fascists in Ukraine.
• #великаястрана - великая страна (vjelikaja strana) - "[the] great country [of Russia]"
• rarely used on Twitter
• #горжусьроссией - горжусь Россией (gorzhus' Rossiej) - "I am proud of Russia"

• #Zaмир, #Z - за мир (za mir), зет (zjet) - "for peace", "zet"
• Russian nationalists believe that their destructive campaign will ensure peace for Ukraine, just by eliminating not just fascist groups like the Azov Battalion, but the rest of the country.
• Z is used in Russian tanks for regiments from the Eastern Military District, a large region that goes up to Siberia. Ever since its support by the Russian government, nationalists in Russia also use this symbol in online profiles and hashtags to support the war against Ukraine.
• The exact meaning of Latin alphabet "Z" used in Russian tanks is uncertain. It could mean:
• за победу (za pobjedu) - for victory, used in the Ministry of Defence's official Instagram account
• задача будет выполнена (za budjet vypolnjena) - the task will be completed
• за мир (za mir) - for peace
• за правду (za pravdu) - for truth
• запад (zapad) - westward [towards Ukraine]
• #своихнебросаем - своих не бросаем (svoikh nje brosajem) - "we do not leave our own [people/members]"

• Also used by opponents of Putin to show Russian citizens footage of their country's attacks on Ukrainians and their cities, where such footage is censored or banned.
• #наДонбассевойна8лет, #8лет - на Донбассе война 8 лет (na Donbassje vojna vosjem ljet) - "at the Donbass War for eight years"
