Disagree.
It may be politically incorrect to call "The Borderlands" "The Ukraine," but it's grammatically correct.
Depends in which language. Apparently in Russian it comes out like the borderlands but in Ukrainian it is one word meaning land or our land. In English it depends a bit if you consider it a country or some rebellious Russian border areas.
It may be grammatically correct to say “You’re an ignorant twat with a whore for a mother.” But that doesn't make it an accceptable thing to say.
Oh look, a paid propagandist in the wild on HN. You lot don't survive here for too long. Go learn English language rules and then come back (or better don't).
