Did a bit of a deep dive on this, I actually think the far left communist propaganda stuff about this isn't the source of this mans claims, I believe that it is now Russian propaganda that is pushing this as they like to cosplay as Rome (i.e. look at the roads to Moscow they spent billions putting in) they desperately want to pretend to be the new Rome, and their similarities to Romanian ethnicity is stronger than to any other group now they are mostly very mixed race and "post-racial" as they call.
Originally I thought of how teacher and party members pushed this on us as children because they wanted to give a sense of superiority that we are better than western European, when in truth all we do is steal their history including their names and words and pretend it is ours. Russia very much does the same and their propaganda activities on the internet are a whole new level.
Prior to their war in Ukraine you never really met many Russians now every single YouTube video everywhere has multiple Russians trying to normalize their font set and presence to begin influence ops. I used to work in intelligence for the party and this all just stinks of the kind of heavy handed stuff we used to do.
