...You could literally ask the same thing for every other group of people on the planet.

Examples?

[Beet]

The farther away from England/Holland you get, the less stereo-typically 'Western'/liberal Europe gets. Because these areas had weaker institutions and more decentralized power structures, they were able to take advantage of their coastal status to develop capitalism through trade. However, during the great reversal 1917-1991, the USSR was Europe's premier marxist power.

Also, much of what one could describe as "political correctness" comes from ideas that emerged in the US and Western Europe with the counterculture of the 60s and 70s, and only reached Eastern Europe 20 or 30 years later.

What swl says, plus the fact that the "slavic" countries are too busy developing their economy to use resources on discussing what Americans (and to lesser extent West Europeans) define as PC. Of course in 20 years, we will likely see some of the ideas being embraced by an significant minority of the East European intelligensia and much of the ideas they will import from American universities, will be as mismatched as it's in the most of the rest of Europe.
