Under Ukraine's fascist [[discriminatory]] laws, if a native Russian-speaking clerk-cashier in a convenience store attempts to sell you so much as a candy bar, the transaction must be conducted in the Ukrainian language. If both the cashier and customer are native Russian-speakers, both must put on fake Ukrainian accents under the [[racist]] regime's [[politically correct]] laws or suffer often cruel sanctions, up to and including public humiliation and violent beatings.
