> USSR controlled the information far more tightly

Not at the end. Also back then US had USAID

> Regarding your other point, no, 'Non-whites' are not really discriminated

I think you are not qualified to say that. Talk to more yakuts who live in the "center". I'm not basing my words on nothing.

> well. What you're referring to is the cargo-cult practice by some ppl who try to mimic modern Western political tactics

No I don't. This is based on real life data. you are sheltered from it. Good for you.

1960s and 1970s are the end to you, really? USAID, really? You have already proven that you have a very remote understanding of Russia/USSR, please stop trying to bring this point even further.

> I think you are not qualified to say that.

I actually am.

By pure chance, I do have such contacts, they laugh at this decolonization crap. Also by chance, I knew Russians who lived in Yakutia in 1990s, and they did tell me stories of discrimination from the locals. Same as stories of discrimination of Russians in Kazakhstan, Baltic republics, etc -- both in soviet and post-soviet times.

What is "decolonization"? Tell us more.

Also I said discrimination against non white Russians. Actually I literally talked about this with Russian citizen who doesn't look fully Russian the other week, she was called черножопая a couple years ago interviewing for a job and for that reason didn't get it (this is not america so good luck complaining about it). So go ask your fellow yakuts, great you know multiple so you have a sample size more than 1, about racial unfairness they encountered living in the west of Russia? and come back here to tell us.

I guess you should learn what Russians did there way before 1990s.

Keep pushing your agenda I am amused)
