No, you dingleberry. :steamfacepalm:

It is short for SLAVic, as in someone that comes from or lives in a Slavic country and usually speaks one of the Slavic languages.

from what i can find online, no, slavic is derived from slav. as for where the word "slav" itself comes from, see here:

the word "slave" does in fact apparently come from slav, referring to the fact in early history slavic people were often forced into slavery

no. but the truth is a long, convoluted story, ranging not only within linguistics and history, but also within geography and geopolitics of today, so there's a lot of space for misinterpretations no matter what.

WhAaAaAt?! B-b+b-but muh afrolesbian centric underwater basket weaving gender studies degree taught me that white people physically can't undergo oppression!?

Next you'll be telling me poor Europeans, like the Irish, paid for their travel and lodging across the Atlantic by signing their rights away as indentured servants, and that many of them were heckin illegally abused and thrown overboard on the way as free, expendable laborers, despite being "white"!
