'Lost Popularity'
[edit]I am not a familiar enough with wikipedia to make an edit to the page, but I would like to at least pose the question on the talk page for this passage: "It lost popularity after it was adopted by a political organization." I would like to question its inclusion on the basis of there being no citation. I happen to have paid close attention to the events of the war in the Donbass up to the current Russo-Ukraine war, and therefore watched a lot of video footage available on the internet, and I to this day regularly hear Russian soldiers use the term "ukrop" to describe Ukrainian soldiers. There is evidence of this available on YouTube, in Maxim Fedeev's combat documentaries. I do not personally speak Russian, but I have heard the word enough to wonder what it meant, so to me that implies that it is at least somewhat popular with people involved in the fighting. 107.179.240.36 (talk) 01:33, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
- I think it means it fell out of popularity as an ironic term among Ukrainians. HappyWith (talk) 22:04, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
