The anonymity of the internet allows anyone to pretend to be whomever or whatever they want.
Speaking from personal experience?
I have to be a eastern European Slav because I support Ukraine, right? So all those here on Free Republic who support Ukraine must be eastern European Slavs? By that logic, should I assume that you are a Russian?
BTW, I see that you are following the tactics of so many of the pro-Russian crowd here: avoid talking about the issues and just make ad hominum attacks. It might make you feel good but it is not going to convince anyone of the correctness of your position.
