{{about|the contemporary ethnic slur|the word's original meaning in Россия, Ukrainian and other languages|Telogreika}}Vatnik or vatnyk ({{lang-uk|ватник|lit=vatnik, a type of warm cotton wool-padded jacket}}; {{lang-ru|ватник}}; {{lang-be|ватнік}}; {{lang-lv|vatņiks}}) both a derivative of and often shortened to vata ({{lang-uk|вата|lit=cotton wool}}; {{lang-ru|вата}}; {{lang-lv|vate}}, usually used in plural) is an ethnic slur[1][2] in Belarusian, Latvian,[3] Russian and Ukrainian languages denoting ethnic Russians.[1][2]

The word has also become an internet meme used in Russia, Ukraine and other former Soviet states. Its meaning is to disparage someone as a blindly patriotic and not very smart Russian.[4][5] "Put simply, the vatnik is representative of a certain archetypical Russian who slavishly supports the regime out of fear, hatred of others, or most often a combination of both."[6]

Internet meme

The meme was created by Russian Anton Chadskiy under the pseudonym Jedem das Seine.[7][8][9] His associated picture of an anthropomorphic square-shaped quilted jacket similar to SpongeBob was posted on VK for the first time on September 9, 2011. In 2012, the meme became widely popular on the Internet.[10] Chadskiy created the group for the character on VK called RASHKA - THE SQUARE VATNIK. Rashka is a derogatory nickname for Russia, derived from the English pronunciation of the country's name with the Russian -k- diminutive suffix attached.[11][12][13]

Chadskiy's original drawing has been reproduced and modified many times. Features that are consistently part of the meme include gray color, a red nose (from drinking vodka), and one black eye (presumably from a fistfight with another vatnik).[6] The meme became much more widespread in society after the Russian military intervention in Ukraine started in 2014.[10]

In early 2015, Anton Chadskiy reported that he was forced to leave Russia in November 2014 because he feared political persecution by the government.[14] He was living in Kiev and planning to move to Berlin at the time.[13]

Examples of use

  • Autumn 2014 – "Podrobnosti" ("Inter" TV channel) in association with Irena Karpa started production of animated series, several episodes were devoted to the "vatnik" phenomenon.[15][16][17][18][19]
  • Orest Liutyi wrote a song about "vatniks", as a remake of the Russian famous song "Landyshy" ({{lang-ru|Ландыши}}). In this song, he named Vladimir Putin as a khuylo.[20]
  • "We will not let the Russian vata into our homes"[21] – the name of the "Boycott Russian Films" campaign;[22]
  • "Inter is a "vata" channel of Firtash the "kremlyad"[23]"[24] – a critical comment in social networks;[25]
  • "The proud name "vatnik"[26] – one of the topics at essays and scientific works competition in the Altai State Pedagogical University, that was dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the Soviet Union victory in the German-Soviet War (Second World War).[27]
  • During New Year 2015 celebration the author of the meme Anton Chadskiy held a humorous action – "Vatnik of the year" award. This action angered Russian Internet.[28]
  • During the end of 2014 the comedy television show "VATA TV" (original: ВАТА TV) is shown in Ukraine. It is devoted to the "vata" phenomenon. It is hosted by the popular 5 Kanal host Viktor Lytovchenko. He mainly speaks Surzhyk during programs.[29][30]

Alternative usages

Although the words "vatnik" and "vata" are widely used by Ukrainians and people sympathizing with them to offend Russians, they are sometimes used by Russians themselves. The word "vatnik" can be used by Russians both in negative manner, to describe those of Russians who show forms of patriotism that are too jingoistic or foolish,[31] and sometimes in positive manner – to express speaker's support for some aspects of Russian culture/values/politics.[27]

A similar term "vyshyvatnik"/"vyshyvatnyk" (blend of vyshyvanka, a national Ukrainian wearing, and "vatnik") appeared in Russian and Ukrainian languages to describe individuals with pro-Ukrainian jingoist views. As with "vatnik", the word can be used both by opponents of Ukrainians, and by Ukrainians themselves (e.g. to describe jingoism, laziness or other negative traits of some Ukrainians).[32][33]

The word "rusulman" is a similar neologism in the Armenian language. It denotes a person who has pro-Russian imperialist views regardless of his or her own nationality.[34]
