    Such a typical trope. Similar shit was going in almost every Soviet state, where native population’s identity was destroyed through repression and focused erasure, and replaced with the primary russian identity. The cultures could only exist in a highly theatrical environment, highly moderated, and only aligned with the idea of superior Russian culture.

    That’s why you have native Buryats calling themselves Russians before dying from a drone hit.

      Ironically, what inspired a lot of Ukrainians to stop using russian language and cultural references in everyday life is the full scale invasion. I guess, thanks putin for undoing the damage Soviets did to Ukrainian culture? /s

      Probably would get paid to spout more propaganda until he starts asking questions and then he will see the reality because they don’t want critical thinkers, but monkeys who dance the party line.

      General consensus around the Threadiverse is they’re a Russian national living in Canada

    What an odd feeling it must be to create a platform for your ideas and the platform slowly walls you off from it.
