I always love the russian accent for some reason. Like they sound to.. idk how to describe... like very authoritative, it can sound intimidating, but when spoken by someone that is resisting government oppression kinda like bring you hope. Like I hear a Russian accent of English and I immediately think of like revolution, like the revolution against the Tsar, or like the Alexey Navalney type of people.
When ever I hear Chinese, Korean, or Japanese accents, I think of like intellectuals, scientists. And specifically in case of Chinese (both Cantonese and Mandarin) accents, I think of the fight for democracy in Hong Kong, the resistance against the CCP's encroching upon ROC/Taiwan, and those doctors who tried to warn people of covid, and the dissidents who fled or have been exiled.
The average American English accent sounds kinda boring, no offense. Even the British accept, which is slightly better than the American version, still sounds boring AF.
