Why are Ukrainian authors so much worse than Russian ones?

Why are Ukrainian authors so much worse than Russian ones?

Gogol was Ukrainian

He also hated most Ukrainians

Ukraine is feudalist intellectual wasteland. Russia had at least some important thinkers.

*blocks your path*

Ukrainians are mentally inferior to their neighbors.
Poles, Ukrainians, Romanians all have significant literary traditions of their own.

Yeah but, so do most Ukrainians

>Ukrainian authors

There's no such thing.

Ukies are just little Russians. Little minds. Little stature. Little country. Little culture. Little talent.

Name one great Ukrainian work

>Tsar Nicholas read Shevchenko's poem, "Dream". Vissarion Belinsky wrote in his memoirs that, Nicholas I, knowing Ukrainian very well, laughed and chuckled whilst reading the section about himself, but his mood quickly turned to bitter hatred when he read about his wife. Shevchenko had mocked her frumpy appearance and facial tics, which she had developed fearing the Decembrist Uprising and its plans to kill her family.
What the fuck was his problem?

Such is life in Kiev.

Colonialism, repressions, and political disunity.
At least we have our own Aeneid.

Ukrainian language is just Russian with random bits of nonsense stolen from the Turkic, Polish, and Slovakian as well as an alphabet that makes no sense (Gamma for He?!?!)

>Colonialism, repressions, and political disunity.

Bfff hahahahaha. God. Is this what they teach now to kids in Ukrainie? That's what happens when fascists are in charge I guess.

This whole new hardcore ukrainian identity started in 1990.
Gogol, Mayakovsky, Bulgakov never thought of themselves as hardcore ukrainians.

>Ukrainians hate communism to the point where they'll arrest you for publicly being a leftist
>Both their sacred cow poets Franko and Shevchenko were nobodies until the Soviet Union pushed them

>denying a nationality “””exists””” while knowing nothing about what you are talking about

you guys can join krautchan in the pretentious teenagers club
