It's a viral Russian video used on social media that conveys patriarchal and pro-Russian worldviews.
🔻Maria Zakharova, the official representative of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, commented on Nela Ril's words:
This is clinical Russophobia. You can ban brown bears, ban or isolate the part of the sun that shines on Russia [...] Instead of addressing pressing global issues like hunger, environmental problems [...] the West focuses on the 'clinical manifestation of nationalism.

Sigma is the 18th letter of the Greek alphabet.
🔻In Russia, the idea of a 'sigma male' (Wikipedia) recently emerged: a term from the Internet slang used to describe men who are loners and independent of society.
🔻"The song is too catchy, the girls are too charismatic and too Russian, they dance too infectiously to a too energetic melody. Too much of everything. Russian weapon. Ban it."
The appeal to ban it is not only russophobia, comrades. This seems to be fascism.
• (Звучать) из каждого утюга
[zvu-chat' is kazh-da-va u-tyu-ga]
SLT: To sound from every iron
To be on heavy rotation, all over the news, to be broadcast too many times

ОK, я позже зайду!
OK, I'll drop in later!
Позже 🆚️ попозже 🆚️ потом
🔻These adverbs all relate to time in the future and can be translated as later.
[po-zhe]
Later
🔻This is the most general and neutral term, simply meaning "later." It doesn't specify how much later:
• Я приду позже.
I'll come later.
[pa-po-zhe]
А bit later
🔻This word adds the nuance of a little later, soon, or in a short while. It implies a shorter delay than позже. Think of the ПО- prefix as meaning a little:
• Я позвоню тебе попозже.
I'll call you a little later.
[pа-tom]
Аfterwards, eventually
🔻This word implies a less definite, more distant future. It suggests something will happen after something else, but the exact time isn't specified:
• Сделаем это потом.
Let's do it afterwards/later.
