2“Ethnic” Pageant Winner Enrages Russian NationalistsNaharomotra Ny Nasionalista Rosiana Ilay Oliravina “Foko Hafa” Nandresy
3Eighteen year-old Elmira Abdrazakova likely did not anticipate winning the Miss Russia pageant last Saturday, March 2, 2013.Tahaka ny tsy niomana mialoha handresy tamin'ny fifaninanana Oliravina Rosia ilay 18 taona Elmira Abdrazakova tamin'ny Asabotsy 2 marsa 2013 farany teo.
4If she had, she would likely have made her profile on the Russian social network VKontakte private beforehand.Raha izany manko dia efa tsy nataony hitam-bahoaka mialoha ny mombamomba azy tao amin'ny tambajotra Rosiana VKontakte.
5Instead, she later ended up removing the profile entirely.Amin'izao fotoana lasa nanaisotra manontolo ny mombamomba azy izy.
6Having grown up in the small Siberian town of Mezhdurechensk (located in Kemerovo Oblast', a coal-mining region near Novosibirsk), Abdrazakova wasn't prepared for the amount of vitriol her victory would attract from the RuNet's nationalists, who inundated her page with racist messages.Nihalehibe tao amin'ny tanana ambonivohitra kely Siberiana ao Mezhdurechensk (miorina ao Kemerovo Oblast', faritra mpitrandraka arintany manakaiky an'i Novosibirsk) izy, tsy niomana tamin'ny fahamaroan'ny levilevy azony vokatry ny fandreseny i Abdrazakova, levilevy ataon'ireo nasionalista ao amin'ny RuNet, izay nameno hafatra fanavakavahana ara-poko ao amin'ny pejiny.
7Though her account is no more, plenty of vitriol still circulates the RuNet.Na dia nofoanana aza ny kaontiny, mbola nameno ny RuNet ihany ny teny masiaka.
8When top Russian blogger Rustem Adagamov posted news [ru] of Abdrazakova's victory on his blog, along with some of her photographs, the announcement attracted comments like [ru] “Are there still Russian girls in the Russian Federation?,” not only implying that women like Abdrazakova aren't really Russian, but that foreigners are somehow taking over.Rehefa navoakan'ilay Rosiana Rustem Adagamov tao amin'ny bilaoginy ny vaovaon'ny [ru] fandresen'i Abdrazakova, miaraka amin'ny sariny, dia nahasarika famoahan-kevitra tahaka izao [ru] “Mbola misy tovovavy Rosiana ihany ve ato amin'ny Federasiona Rosiana?,” izay tsy vitan'ny tahaka ny manondro ny vehivavy tahaka an'i Abdrazakova ho tsy tena Rosiana, fa vahiny nividy zom-pirenena.
9(Russian society is no stranger to ethnic tensions, certainly.(Tsy vahiny amin'ny fifampihenjanana ara-poko ny fiaraha-monina Rosiana.
10Indeed, there's currently an online initiative [ru] aimed explicitly at combating such “illegal immigrants. ”)Indrindra fa misy amin'izao fotoana izao fisantarana andraikitra [ru] mikendry mazava ny ady amin'ny “mpifindra monina tsy ara-dalana. ”)
11Nationalist ideologue and opposition Coordinating Council member Konstantin Krylov also lamented Russia's “changing face.”Mitaraina amin'ny “fiovan'endrika” ihany koa ny ideology Nasionalista sady mpanohitra mpikambana ao amin'ny Vaomieran'ny Fandrindrana Konstantin Krylov.”
12Posting a photograph of an elderly Asian woman to represent this “face,” he continued [ru] in a faux-folksy style:Mamoaka ny sarina vehivavy Aziatika antitra ho maneho ny ‘tavany” , hoy izy nanohy [ru] amin'ilay fomba fanaon'olo-tsotra sandotsandoka:
13Nowadays we gotta love her.Ankehitriny tsy maintsy mitia azy isika.
14And her daughter, too, we gotta love.Ary ny zanany vavy ihany koa tsy maintsy tiavintsika.
15And the rest of the brood.Sy ireo iray tampo aminy.
16All the ragamuffin peoples Resplendent in the Russian Land [ru].Ireo vahoaka fadiranovana rehetra Mamirapiratra ato amin'ny Tany Rosiana [ru].
17Abdrazakova's name and dark hair are indeed classically Tatar, but in reality she is a Shor (a related Turkic people native to Siberia).Tahaka ny Tatar ny anaran'i Abdrazakova sy ny volony mainty, saingy ny tena marina dia Shor izy (vahoaka mitovitovy amin'ny Tiorka fa teratany any Siberia).
18Both the Tatars, Russia's largest ethnic minority with the eponymous Republic of Tatarstan, and the much less numerous Shors have been a peaceful part of the Russian “experience” for hundreds of years.Na ny Tatars, vondro-poko vitsy an'isa lehibe indrindra any Rosia izay malaza amin'ilay hoe Repoblika Tatarstan, sy ireo somary vitsy an'isa kokoa Shors dia samy avy any amin'ny faritra Rosiana milamina an-jatony taona.
19Nevertheless, the modern crop of Russian nationalists views them (and really any other non-Russian ethnic group) with suspicion and animosity.Saingy, ny vokatry ny fijery maoderina avy amin'ny nasionalista Rosiana no mijery azy ireo (sy ireo vondro-poko tsy-Rosiana rehetra) amin'ahiahy sy hasiahana.
20To these nationalists, Tatars look “different,” although any foreigner would be hard-pressed to pick out a Tatar from a Russian crowd, while their traditionally Muslim faith is a reminder of the problems of the North Caucasus.Ho an'ireo nationalista ireo, “hafa” ny Tatars, na dia sahirana amin'ny fanavahana Tatar iray amin'ny vahoaka Rosiana ankapobeny aza ny vahiny iray, raha mampahatsiahy ny olana mpitranga any Kaokazy avaratra kosa ny fivavahany nentin-drazana mahazatra azy ireo.
21Finally, Tatars are the remnants of the Tatar Yoke, the historic occupation of medieval Russia by Mongolians, which ended around seven hundred years ago.Farany, ny Tatars dia ny sisa ambin'ny Zioga Tatar, fananiham-bohitry ny Mongol nandritra ny vanim-potoana Antenantenany Rosiana, izay efa nifarana tokotokony ho 700 taona izay.
22How Russian nationalists seem to view Elmira Abdrazakova.Toy izao ny fijerin'ny nasionalista Rosiana an'i Elmira Abdrazakova.
23Image remixed by author using Vereschagin's “A Bukharian Soldier,” CC 2.0 Wikimedia Commons.Sary namboarin'ny mpanoratra nampiasa ny sarin'i Vereschagin “Miaramila Bokhariana,” CC 2.0 Wikimedia Commons.
24These opinions are clearly visible in how the unabashedly nationalist publication Sputnik & Pogrom has reacted to Abdrazakova's victory.Miharihary ireo hevitra ireo amin'ny famoahan'ny gazety nasionalista Sputnik & Pogrom tsy misy henatra ho setrin'ny fandresen'i Abdrazakova.
25Egor Prosvirnin, an S&P ideologue, went the extra mile in his tirades, drawing on rumors that Abdrazakova had plastic surgery performed on her lips (a rumor that has since been disproved [ru] by Elmira's acquaintances and childhood photographs), calling her a “darkie exploding from botox” [ru] and a “provincial tatarva [disparaging] with blown up lips” [ru].Lasa lavitra mihitsy i Egor Prosvirnin, ideology ao amin'ny S&P, amin'ny filazan'ny tsy maty am-bavany, nitondra siosion-dresaka fa nanaovana fandidiana fanatsarana endrika ny molotr'i Abdrazakova (siosio efa nodisoin'ny [ru] olona nifankazatra tamin'i Elmira sy ireo sariny fahazaza), miantso azy ho “mainty napoakan'ny botox” [ru] sy “tanindrana tatarva [fanaratsiana] manana molotra mampitsamboatra” [ru].
26The main argument [ru], however, concerned a plot even more sinister:Fa ny fandresen-dahatra [ru] tena fototra, dia miompana amin'ny fomba fieritreritra mampalahelo kokoa:
27[…] they've began to inculcate in us tolerance through a master image of female beauty […] changing our conception of how a “Miss Russia” should look[…] Ampidirin-dry zareo tsikelikely hahatonga antsika hahazaka amin'ny alalan'ny sarin'ny hatsara-tarehim-behivavy […] ny fanovana ny tokony ho fijerintsika amin'izany atao hoe “Miss [oliravina] Rosia” izany
28Abdrazakova's supposed Muslim faith also reared its head - S&P readers left comments like “Miss Pakistan and Azerbaijan 2013” [ru] and “Why wasn't she wearing a burqa or at least a hijab?”Mipongatra ihany koa ny fanombanana an'i Abdrazakova ho manaraka ny fivavahana Miozolomana - ny mpamakin'ny S&P moa dia maneho hevitra tahaka ny hoe “Oliravina Pakistan sy Azerbaijan 2013” [ru] sy ny hoe “Maninona izy no tsy miakanjo burqa [akanjo miozolomana] na hijab [voaly miozolomana] farafaharatsiny?”
29[ru].[ru].
30In fact, Shors are largely Russian Orthodox (as is Abdrazakova, who attended Sunday school as a child), and are only tenuously related to the Tatars.Ny tena marina, ny Shors amin'ny ankapobeny dia Orthodoksa Rosiana (tahaka an'i Abdrazakova, izay mpianatra Sekoly Alahady fahazaza), fa ny fomba fiakanjony ihany no misy itovizany amin'ny Tatars.
31However, people who are quick to defend Abdrazakova by citing her “real” ethnicity tend to undermine their own cause: claims that “it's okay for her to win because she's not really a Tatar” are rather weak tea, as far as defense goes.Saingy; ireo olona te-hiaro faingana an'i Abdrazakova amin'ny filazana ny “tena” fiaviany dia toy ny mamandri-tena ihany: ny miteny fa “tsy maninona raha mandresy izy satria tsy tena Tatar izy” dia toy ny dite matsatso ihany, raha izany no atao ho fiarovan-tena.
32This is especially dangerous in Russia, where people unironically write things like [ru] “out of the three runner-ups, Abdrazakova is closest to the europeoid racial type,” and are later surprised when this sparks a racist discussion about which of Russia's ethnicities are most European-looking, replete with mentions of Aryans and genetics.Mampidi-doza indrindra izany ho an'i Rosia, izay tsy mivazivazy mihitsy ny olona manoratra tahaka ny hoe [ru] “Amin'ireo telo nifaninana farany, Abdrazakova no nanana endrika Eoropeana indrindra,” ary dia gaga avy eo rehefa avy eo rehefa nampiely adihevitra fanavakavahana ara-poko ilay fanehoan-kevitra ka lasa manao hoe fa ny foko iza no manana endrika Eoropeana indrindra, mamerina indray ny resaka Aryans sy ny zenetika.
33Blogger Alexander Nemirovsky, a historian, explained [ru] why, for some, Shors may be an attractive alternative to Tatars:Manazava [ru] ny antony mahatonga ny sasany hihevitra ny Shors ho tsara mahasolo ny Tatars kokoa ilay bilaogera Alexander Nemirovsky, mpahay tantara:
34Shors are Orthodox + Siberian aboriginals.Orthodoksa ny Shors ary niorim-paka avy ao Siberia.
35Tatars on the other hand are ethnic Muslims and not “good Indians from the far away land of Siberia.”Ny Tatars kosa etsy ankilan'izany dia foko miozolomana ary tsy “Indiana tsara lavitra be an'i Siberia.”
36Besides, Shors aren't associated with power, business, etc., and they are in general not well known, while Tatars are associated with that, and are much easier to “other” […]Etsy andaniny, tsy mifandraika amin'ny fahefana sy ny fandraharahana, sns ny Shors, ary tsy malaza amin'ny ankapobeny, nefa ny Tatars kosa dia mifandraika amin'ireo, ary mora tononina kokoa ho “hafa” […]
37Generally, this case is reminiscent of the outpouring of nationalist hostility last summer [ru], when several North Caucasian wrestlers won gold medals competing for Russia.Amin'ny ankapobeny, nampitamberina ny fihisitrisitra nasionalista tamin'ny fahavaratra teo [ru] ity raharaha ity raha nahazo medaily volamena maromaro ho an'i Rosia nandritra ny fifaninanana ny mpanao tolona Kaokaziana tavaratra maromaro.
38Few things annoy the nationalists more than “unworthy” minorities enjoying some form of success.Zavatra tena vitsy no mahasorena ny nationalista ankoatra ny endrika fahombiazana azon'ny vondron'olona vitsy an'isa “tsy mendrika”.
39Meanwhile, one blogger did pen a successful defense of Abdrazakova.Mandritra izany fotoana izany, nisy bilaogera iray nahomby tamin'ny fiarovana an'i Abdrazakova.
40Anastasiya Karimova, a journalist at Kommersant and the young lady who famously brought oranges [ru] to the FSB Lubyanka office back in 2005, frankly talked about the banal racism she has had to deal with as a half-Tatar, ending on an impassioned note [ru]:Anastasiya Karimova, mpanao gazety ao amin'ny Kommersant sy tovovavy nalaza nitondra laoranjy [ru] nampiverina ho amin'ny fitantanana ny FSB an'i Lubyanka tamin'ny 2005, niteny mazava momba ny fanavakavahana andavanandro nihatra taminy amin'ny maha-Tatar ilany azy, ka namarana ny filazalazany tsy misy fironam-po manao hoe [ru]:
41I see a very clear difference between nationalism and Nazism.Mahita mazava tsara ny fahasamihafana eo amin'ny nationalisma sy ny Nazisma aho.
42I am not horrified by nationalists, at one point I even supported many DPNI proposals for changing immigration policy.Tsy matahotra nationalista aho, amin'ny lafiny iray dia manohana ny tolo-kevitry ny DPNI maro momba ny fanovana ny politikam-pifindra-monina aza aho.
43The disgusting fascination with surnames and facial features crosses the line between two completely different notions.Ny fironana maharikoriko amin'ny anaram-bositra isan-karazany sy ny endrikendriky ny tava no lasa mampifandray ny foto-kevitra roa samy hafa tanteraka.
44Streams of xenophobic crap have been, and continue to be, poured out over Elmira Abdrazakova, but she can console herself with the knowledge that her victory once again opened up an old abscess […] Be strong, Elmira!Niraradraraka sy mbola mitohy ny fahadalàn'ny fankahalana vahiny mahazo an'i Elmira Abdrazakova, saingy afa-mampiono-tena ny tenany izy amin'ny fahalalana fa nanokatra fivontosana efa ela indray ny fandreseny […] Mahereza, Elmira!
