          Russian is not an adjective but a people from a particular country/nation. Every country/nation holds a prominent identity enough for its people to be designated with a capitalised nation/country prefix. You would call someone a Puerto Rican and not a puerto rican, or a Spaniard and not a spaniard, or a Filipino and not a filipino, or a Kazakh and not a kazakh. Same goes for Poles, not poles.

            AngryAvocado is right though, if you look to the context of post in question, kulun wrote “russian war”, which in polish would be “rosyjska wojna” - it’s clearly an adjective and in polish adjectives are rarily capitalized.

            • Is Kulun a Pole or Polish speaker? You should see his account history and it should be very easy to see. A correlation like that is not that far off.

                No idea, from what i seen he’s a bootlicker (this is sadly very common for Poles in the internet) and a stalker and i would rather not dive into all the nonsense in his post history. Just wanted to say Avocado is right about the language.
