Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

„Отчизна” and „отечество” come from „оте́ц”, meaning father, hence fatherland. „Родина” comes from „род”, meaning family or kin (technically both come from Proto-Slavic or whatever). None of those are mother-related.
„Родина-мать” is a personification.
