Huh??? I always thought Russians refer to the home country as Mother Russia or Motherland.

Me too. Very, very unusual twist away from the “Motherland” term that Stalin used in WWII AGAINST the Nazi “Fatherland” attackers

His propaganda failed this time.

Ditto
Communists for mother Russia
Fascists for der Vaterland

Mother Russia or Motherland. (You are correct)

“Rodinya”. Motherland.

They still do, which is mighty progressive of them....

Though it could have been transland I suppose...

Canada already made their national anthem gender neutral and there is talk in Germany about removing vaterland from der Deutschlandlied. Same in Norway, were we sing how the men have fought and the women have shed their tears.
