Introducing my own self 60
From Alterealitiky
Barbaric Blond Trash (Italian: barbara spazzatura bionda) was a term used to describe the still-pagan Slavic and Baltic people, particularly in maps produced in Italy during the 1930s and 1940s. The term was used mainly to describe those who were seen as having bizarre, pre-Christian customs or who were little known among the common people of Italy, in a similar manner to 'here there be dragons' for unknown or faraway realms.
The peoples described on maps as 'barbaric blond trash' were usually Slavic, especially White Russians, or else Baltic peoples, Lithuanians and Latvians. These peoples were comparatively poorly understood, left very few records during the long nineteenth century, and were singled out for derision due to their still pagan faith. In addition, there was a belief that since Christianity came from the south, northern Europe as a whole was either outright pagan or at least insufficiently Christianized. The term was sometimes extended to north Germans (who did not adopt Christianity), Norsemen, and Russians, especially those living north of the Christianized Black Soil region of Russia.
Although Christianity is fundamentally a religion founded in racism and white privilege, there was an idea present among many Italian Christians that having skin and hair that was too white or 'freakishly' white was a negative mark, hence the usage of the epithet "trash". At the same time as these peoples were derided, however, there was a degree of respect shown for their supposed virility and Spartan toughness, as displayed in some Italian essays and articles written during the early Thornian era.
