You could at least specify in what way they are oppressed to start discussing it and get to the point of maybe how it could be solved

What I am seeing now is a bunch of total and utter bullshit. Half of my family is Russian and there is no racism, everyone gets along with each other just perfectly. In most cases, if you don't know Russian even though we are an independent nation, it will be harder to get a job because it is seen as a really important thing especially in communications or anything that has to do with clients.

There are literally no cases here of any racism or discrimination. And our media isn't silent about it either, there were plenty of big debates and many articles about Poles and bilingual street signs though, that you can at least bring into discussion. But Russians? What happens to them according to your fantasies?

Well, I was still a kid back then, and I didn't notice it, but in retroperspective, there was definitly racism against Russians in Estonia.

That's an isolated case though, I don't see how that's institutionalized racism. I agree that there are racist people everywhere.

My grandfather was a Russian, not from USSR though, his family came here in 1800s I think, when people from Russian Empire were being exiled or something. He was born here and lived here his whole life, yet he spoke with a very thick Russian accent until his death, and his Lithuanian was still broken. And he lived over 60 years. He had good paying job for as long as I can remember.

I mean sure you can have a few examples of someone being racist, but I am not sure if that teacher would still hold her position to this day. They get fired for less here, especially recently. With such cases, you could call any country oppressive. They have same rights AFAIK.

Also, such "racism" can't even be compared to what these minorities do and mean to us every day. It's not a meme that they are called 5th column. To whom do you think it is useful to keep them aggressive and with separatist intentions? Certainly not us.

The problem is not that this one teacher was racist. It's that she didn't even feel the need to hide her racism, showing that racism against russians was socially acceptable

>I mean sure you can have a few examples of someone being racist, but I am not sure if that teacher would still hold her position to this day.
I haven't been in Estonia since 1999, so I dont know. But of course I hope that the racism against Russian minorities has diminished, although the posts on /int/ make me doubt that

Well you shouldn't trust /int/ posts, you should try finding English sources for Baltic news instead. Posters here are also in anime and traps but that's hardly a representation of whole country.

I think one of the biggest problems is that Russians never bother to learn the language. My aunt (mom's sister) is half Russian and her husband is like what, not even 40 I think. He always stutters when speaking Lithuanian. Some time last year he lost his driver's licence due to having alcohol in his system and my aunt had to fill all his papers when asking for its return because he is illiterate in Lithuanian. Some people, even adults and seniors, have trouble being indenepdent by themselves if they need to fill some paperwork or something, and then they blame it on oppression.

My aunt told this to me actually, when she talks to her relatives or stuff like that, that some of them know Lithuanian rather really well, but outright refuse to speak it on purpose. It really makes me neurons fire up.

I think that racism here against anyone is socially acceptable, well, at least 10 years ago definitely. It's not just Russians, you can't be a black person on a bus. You will always hear monkey sounds and the terms nigger, Africa. It wouldn't have been different with any nationality in your case I think.

Yes, I hope that the Baltic people here are not really representative for the average Baltic population.

>I think one of the biggest problems is that Russians never bother to learn the language.
While this is certanly true, I went to Estonian Kindergarden and Estonian school, and still experienced anti-Russian sentiments, even by beeing able to speak Estonian perfectly. I am really glad that my family immigrated to Germany, because I believe in Estonia, I would have been always remained a second class citizen.

>I think that racism here against anyone is socially acceptable, well, at least 10 years ago definitely. It's not just Russians, you can't be a black person on a bus.

>>70987209
The problem is, that until the fall of the soviet union, there was no need to learn Estonian language, because people were perfectly able to find work with russian language only.
Then, as Estonia became independant, from one day to the other, Estonian became the only official language, and almost half of Estonian population were foreigners in their own country.

No, they're all like that

They do everything so people like you give up and move to more tolerant places.

They give passports but you will never become a high ranking army officer/governor/etc. When crisis starts and not enough jobs for everybody, they forget every rules and implement old good "profession - estonia" again.

The more monoethnic country becomes, the more orgasms nationalists get. And absolutely doesn't matter what is gonna happen with economy.

There are no russians in government, army, etc.

yes, it is true that soviet union settled a lot of russians (mostly lower class or criminals) in Estonia, as a part of their russification policy.
However, it is not very fair to blame those people for soviet policy, and since you can't exactly genocide them, I think it would be much better if Estonia tried to properly integrate them

Exactly, I plan to move to another country in future, but I am not making a step even out of my city until I know the language.

>>70987226
It absolutely could have been the case, we don't have really good history together. But main problem is the first generation adults who came here to us and didn't grow up here. Adult people refuse to integrate and our adult people refuse to make peace. Children just mimic adults, it's not their fault over what happened over the centuries. And younger people don't care anymore, but of course media tries to set them against each other as always. Again, I am not sure who it is useful to, to keep them separated.

>>70987268
Another problem is that because almost every adult here speaks Russian, and so the Russians aren't forced to learn the native language. There is a couple from Russia who immigrated into my city, a man and a woman, I think woman is Chuvash or something. We had article in our newspaper about them, how the language barrier was really difficult but in the end they passed the national exam. I used to write with that woman and when I asked how people treat her here, she told me it's really easy because everywhere she goes everyone speaks Russian to her. This couple should be taken as example by all Russians, especially those who live here their whole life, which are put to shame.

Just an example, if Spain conquered Portugal, sent us a million Spaniards to settle here, and then 50 years later we got independent and those Spaniards who settled here and never learned the language and adopted our cultured started playing the victim card I would go full Nazi on their asses too, literal genocide.

Also most of those productive jews were Zionists who actively conspired against Germany.
>>
>>70987668
are you seriously comparing Russians to gypsies?
Gypsies have a culture that teaches them it is ok to steal from non-Gypsies.
Same can't be said about Russians. As a matter of fact, Russians are rather well integrated in Germany.
Baltic countries could have the same, a well integrated and productive Russian minority, which probably could help them to improve relations with Russia, if they didn't choose to discriminate against their minorities.

I am not talking about Estonia, I am talking about Lithuania. For Latvia and Lithuania your "statistic" is absolute bullshit.

>>70987747
I am not comparing Russians to gypsies, I am comparing how much of it is a government problem and how much incentive has to come from the minority. It is not as simple as you describe it. These territories, are still considered by many minority people, to be still part of Russia. Of course Russians are well integrated in Germany, it is Germany. Baltic countries will never have good relations with Russia, even if they tried and put 100% into it. It has to do with geo-politics, economics, everything... I think Finland is one of better examples of normal relations with Russia, but they don't have such minority. You can't really compare Baltics to pretty much anyone else in this matter, it is a single case. Well of course you can compare us to other ex-USSR nations and what their relations are with Russia, but admit it, no one wants life standards as those nations.

>>70987864
Actually we are and we had a heated debate about it last year when a woman released a new book called "Mūsiškiai" or "Ours"/"Our people". It describes in graphic details how Lithuanians collaborated and killed Jews, how they stole and sold their stuff etc. Our nationalist party, which gets less than 1% in elections, is frowned upon due to their "FUCK FAGGOTS LITHUANIA FOR LITHUANIANS" attitude. This Serb, like many people in this thread, doesn't know what he's talking about.

I am not trying to offend but you should just look more into it. I know it's a useless advice because most of sources are in Lithuanian and not in English, but lots of stuff said here are simply untrue. People who posted so far have made most of their research in news websites and 4chan.

They fought for commies because they wanted to disolve the Russian Empire for nationalistic reasons, not because they had some vested interest in socialism. Lenin was all about the right of self-determination, but funny how quickly he forgot those promises as soon as he found himself in power.

Also, this whole meme about Latvians being some sort of proto-commies fighting for Soviet ideals needs to die. So does the meme that we were some sort of good Nazis, while in reality only reason why Latvians fought for Nazis was because they were seen as a lesser evil compared to Communists, and even at that Latvians were expecting Western allies ( which, by the way had made promises to move their fleets and soldiers to Baltic, but we were betrayed because no ships or men came to aid Baltic countries ) to liberate them. Jesus Christ, legionnaries were known to sing songs that said that first ones whom they are going to give a kicking will be the reds, only to be followed by Germans. People who think that Latvians or Estonians had anything to gain out of either of the regimes need to die as they haven't opened a fucking history book.

Pretty much none of those that you've mentioned are ethnically Russians and are not comparable. Israeli-"Russians" are just simply Jews and their mentality is not comparable. Russians don't integrate anywhere in Eastern Europe, best example is Ukraine. Whole Eastern Ukraine is full of Russians who outright refuse to learn or speak Ukrainian, same applies to Baltics.
>>
>>70989755
For almost thirty years now to be quite honest. Every year the issue becomes more and more of an non-issue as Russians that are so dumb that they can only speak only language are decreasing.

What Moscow forgets to report in its "unbiased" news is that the amount of Russians that are integrated has actually been increasing ever since the fall of USSR. How convenient.

If I am to believe Russian news, Latvia is like some sort of a country-wide concentration camp where Russians are opressed daily by evil Latvian Nazis. Reality is, eh, quite different.

Yeah whatever but a quarter of a century passed it's not USSR anymore, point in Baltics that they were imported here during USSR are not native here and already almost 30 years have passed yet some of these Russians outright refuse to integrate.

If I were to immigrate to lets say Italy or somewhere I'd have a moral duty and obligation to learn their language.

I'l repeat to you again situation like Russian-Americans are different and not comparable. Out of 3 million Russians Americans are only 900k are ethnic Russians and only 300k of those are born in USSR. Which in a country of 300 million is drop of piss in a sea.

In Baltic states these Russians were imported during communist era and weren't exactly the brightest minds, but mostly factory/construction workers. Who probably still a big chunk misses communism. Russians in Baltics states are not comparable to those living in America.

I wonder, why do you think that? As you said, Finland has relativly normal relations with Russia, part of it because they are not in the NATO. I am sure Russia would be willing to do some concessions for the Baltic states to leave the NATO. Because currently, Russia feels kinda threatend by the fact that American troops are so close to their heartland.

Because that's not useful for Russia. Just like with USA, it is useful to have such neighbouring state in a frozen conflict. Example: Ukraine. You always have someone to blame and something to keep people distracted. It is same in Lithuanian media and other countries' media, it's not something magical.

>Baltics should leave NATO and Russia will make concessions
Haha yes, we should have a Russian military base as well. Nothing wrong will happen, promise. Anyway these soldiers and military exercises on both borders are just tests and shows of power, nothing more. Our main headline in the biggest news website is literally about Russian possibility to invade with their latest military exercise, not even kidding. It keeps people distracted.

I also think that different minorities can't and shouldn't be compared like that. Sorbs, Danes and Frisians are quite different than say, Russian minority in Baltics. Those smaller minorities are not politically motivated for anything nor they have some kind of call for separatism from a neighbouring country. Their languages are usually protected because they are small in numbers. Neither Russian culture nor Russian language need to be ""protected"", Russians only watch Russian channels which are fully available here, dozens of them and speak Russian with natives freely.

Again, it is a language problem. Not fascism, not oppression, it's language and politics. Minorities can be exploited, separated, motivated etc. How it is now is really due to circumstances of history. There is really no 100% appropriate example you could use to compare in a "here, they have it exactly same but they do well" way.

No one is opressed here in the first place, stop repeating this bullshit, it has been demonstrated to be wrong for thousands of times.

If you want to be a citizen in LATVIA you must be able to speak LATVIAN. If you can't speak the language of the country whose citizenship you want, you can't be its citizen. It is that simple.

This is so ridiculously simple, it's mind bogglingly absurd to try to understand what sort of issue Russians have with this simple rule.

Even at that, to live in Rīga, you must know Russian even if you are Latvian because Russian is still pretty commonly used and there are plenty of Russians who either refuse to speak Latvian or simply haven't learnt it. Good thing there are more Russians who speak Latvian nowadays, so please stop spreading this bullshit from Kremlin about our situation being terrible and blah blah blah. I already pointed it out that kremlin is yet to place any positive statistics implying integration in their own news. They only focus on some old farts on 16th of May and some retarded Russians who refuse to learn Latvian, therefore fascism lmao.

And yes, most Latvians dislike Russians, but there is a good reason for that if you haven't noticed.
>>
>>70990966
>Because that's not useful for Russia. Just like with USA, it is useful to have such neighbouring state in a frozen conflict. Example: Ukraine.
I do see the situation in Ukraine differently. In my opinion, UKraine used to be a state in Russian sphere of influence, kinda like Belarus. Then the coup happend, backed up by Americans, and Russia was afraid that Ukraine will join NATO. That's why they annexed Crimea and are supporting the separatist powers in the east of Ukraine.

>Haha yes, we should have a Russian military base as well. Nothing wrong will happen, promise.
So how do you explain Finland? They are not members of NATO, yet they don't get invaded. In fact, I remember Putin pointing out that Russia values Finlands neutrality very much, and thats the reason why they dont station military equippement close to Finnish border.

>Neither Russian culture nor Russian language need to be ""protected"", Russians only watch Russian channels which are fully available here, dozens of them and speak Russian with natives freely.
I can only speak about Estonia, but while they have almost 30% of Russian speaking population, Russian is not an accepted language, and Russian speaking people can't commuicate with the government agencies because of their bad Estonian language.
Wouldn't it be better to have a solution like in the Switzerlands, where several languages are official?

the problem is, that until the fall of soviet union, it was perfectly possible to have a successful life in Lativa without the knowledge of Latvian language
Then, with the independance, from one day to the other, suddenly Latvian was the only official language (at least thats how it happend in Estonia).
I agree that if one lives in Latvia, he should be able to speak the Latvian language. But I think it would have been better if this transition would have happend gradually, not from one moment to the other, suddenly removing a large amount of population from public life and forcing them to form a parallel society

Russians are to this day constantly mocking our airspace and moving more and more troops next to our border. And 78 years ago they tried to enslave us to expand the USSR empire.

Sure, your relations are not perfect by any stretch of the immagination, and sadly Russia often behaves agressivly towards its neighbours. But you can't deny that your relations with Russia are much better than the relations of baltic states with them.

That's because Latvia was occupied by a government that prefered Russian and was forcibly Russifying our country. There is a word and it is called occupation, look it up.

Nothing was ever removed from the public life anyways, there have been Russian parties in parliament ever since the 90's and they have been rather powerful and could be accused of being a fifth column as most of them have been shown to be sponspored by, surprise suprise, Kremlin.

Anyways, your logic is that it is somehow our problem that we got occupied by a foreign power and that we do not accomodate for the left overs of an occupying force.

Russians like to play victim card here, it is quite honestly very pathetic coming from them.

Well, isn't it your problem that you have a huge Russian minority in your country that have little loyalty to Latvian government?
And I understand, it is hard to have nice feelings towards your occupiers, but I dont think it is really fair to blame the individual Latvian Russians for Soviet occupation.
I just think that Lativa and the other Baltic states would do better if they managed to integrate their Russian population., and giving them minority rights and accepting Russian as official language would certanly help

>Ukraine used to be a state in Russian sphere of influence
You do realize that in Russian schools they still teach that Baltics joined USSR voluntarily, right? How are we not Ukraine in that sense?

The thing with making an official language is that it won't really make the Russian minority learn native language. Quite the opposite, it would encourage to keep speaking Russian. The main reason why even I, from first hand real life experiences saw so many Russians illiterate in Lithuanian, is that when we were in Soviet Union, there were Russian schools which they could choose to go to. So not that many of them finished actual Lithuanian schools in Lithuanian. It's not such a problem with younger generation, it's more with older folk. Sometimes they do know Lithuanian but refuse to speak it. It's in mentality. You can make any language official, they just won't do it.

I think that this issue is still too early to solve and that younger people first need to replace the last folks who lived in USSR or who at least had their childhood in it.

To be honest, here in Lithuania, we have about same amount of Russians as Poles. Both are at around 6%. Russians aren't concentrated in any area, so they aren't majority anywhere yet people complain. Poles actually make majority in Vilnius region (not the city) but there are little complaints, even if there were any in recent past.

>>70991669
>isn't it your problem that you have a huge Russian minority in your country that have little loyalty to Latvian government
not when they are politically influenced by a foreign television and other media
>>
>>70990645
It depends how you define the minority. In our case it is 60/40 Dutch/French, and because of the much higher impact factor of the French culture in the old days (and given that a historical, mainly upper-class, minority of French-speaking of Flemings has always been present in Flanders since the high Middle Ages) that minority actually had a greater influence than the majority, hence why we pushed so hard for federalism and cultural independence, which we recieved in the early 70s.

To compare to the Baltics, let's pretend the German-speaking historical upper class would still be present there, exactly how much rights would you give those people? Always take into account the impact factor of a higher culture. In that sense it is hardly comparable to the Sorbs in Germany.

Russian is up there with English, French and German regarding impact factor. Native speakers of that language will more often than not feel it is unnessecary for them to learn a "smaller" language. When you let them it results into the position of Irish in Ireland, not officially the third most spoken language there after English and Polish.

So what I am saying is, a minority of a culture (language-wise) with a high impact factor is not comparable to eg. Sorbs and Frisians.
>>
>>70991669
We won't ever accept Russian as a minority language. It would do nothing to integrate Russians, it would only make them more stubborn about their almost God given rights ( or so they seem to view them ) to speak Russian and not learn Latvian.

Russia is the largest country in the world. There are millions of Russians living there.

Latvia is a small country. Latvians only live in one country. There are barely any Latvians in the world. Latvia is a state that has a vested interest in preserving the Latvian ethnicity and Latvian language. Accepting language of a power that occupied us is not the way to achieve this.

You speak as if it was some sort of a Latvian duty to educate Russians in Latvian, but it isn't so. If you do not like it here, leave. If you want to integrate, you have to put some work in it. Why do Russians have the strongest Soviet mentality in Eastern Europe when it comes to role of government? It almost seems that your people want to be handheld into integration.

Anyways, there isn't much to discuss. Latvia, nor Estonia will ever adopt Russian as a minority language. Whomever wanted to integrate has already done it in these respective states, whomever didn't, well, it is their problem. By every passing year this becomes less and less of a problem.
>>
>>70991669
>I just think that Lativa and the other Baltic states would do better if they managed to integrate their Russian population., and giving them minority rights
List the rights they do not have but would benefit from.

>and accepting Russian as official language would certanly help
>integrate them by giving them more reason to not integrate and live in their own bubble
I guess you also support Arabic as a second language for Germany.
>>
>>70991749
certanly, but you can't choose your neighbours, you have to make the best of the situation you are in.
And in my humble opinion, Finland handles the situation way better than the baltic states.

>>70991779
>1,3 % Russian population
If you had better relations with Russia, your having many Russians could benefit you, since you naturally have a lot of people who fluently speak Russian, making trade with your eastern neighbour easier.

>How are we not Ukraine in that sense?
The big difference is that your countries are in the EU. And I know that many people think Putin is literally Hitler, but he is actually a very pragmatic politician and he wouldn't starte a war with a huge union right next to his border.

>The thing with making an official language is that it won't really make the Russian minority learn native language.
I dont think this is what would happen, if Latvian language would offer better career opportunities for Russians. Sure, you would have some amount of lower class Russians, who would stick to their language, but at least they would be still able to contribute to your society.

>not when they are politically influenced by a foreign television and other media
I think the reason is that Baltic countries have bad relations with Russia. If the relations were to improve, I am sure that Russia would tone down its propaganda
>>
>>70991964
I actually dare to say Russian question is slowly enough becoming an non-issue in Baltic states compared to twenty years earlier.
>>
>>70991915
I agree, it is certanly not an easy situation when your country is divided into two large groups, and I heard that it causes some problems in Belgium.
But do you really believe that your country would be better off if the Dutch majority would decided to have only Dutch as official language, and outlaw French?

>>70991964
>We won't ever accept Russian as a minority language. It would do nothing to integrate Russians, it would only make them more stubborn about their almost God given rights ( or so they seem to view them ) to speak Russian and not learn Latvian.
I think it is true that not all Russians would bother to learn Latvian language. But with Russian as an official language, even those lower class Russians could contribute to the society, and I imagine that the more ambitious ones would learn Latvian either way.

>You speak as if it was some sort of a Latvian duty to educate Russians in Latvian, but it isn't so.
It is not your duty. I just think your country would be better off if you did it

There is a huge difference with minorities who come as refugees and those that historically used to live in your country for a long time
>>
>>70992184
Quotas are retarded and these people don't live here since a long time. Besides, many of them aren't just the people who used to live here, many of them came together with the invading forces. I'd say refugees should be treated even better, as they came running away from their country from conflict or to earn more money, meaning that at least they have motivation.

One of the strongest parties parties is a Russian 5th column one as was explained here. We have at least one parliamentarian who can barely string together 2 sentences in Latvian and stood out by showing middle finger to the people in one case. Not to mention a lot of other Russians who are in there. We have a fucking shitton of Russians in our government. Quotas are garbage and the very definition of discrimination.

Explain your reasons on how making Russian an official language would help with integration.

>There is a huge difference with minorities who come as refugees and those that historically used to live in your country for a long time

No one invited them. They are invaders that were literally moved here with the express purpose of diluting our culture and making it easier to extinguish it. There is zero reason to kowtow to them.

I am not familiar with Latvian political landscape, but I would imagine it happens because Russians in your country have bad education and thus elect retards. Better education would probably help to solve the problem

>Quotas are garbage and the very definition of discrimination.
But without quotas, minorities will be always subjected to the tyrarnny of the majority.

They have the same chances at education as everyone else. Pick a school, study hard, get good education. There is no segregation unless they want for there to be one.

You mean democracy? Yes, horrifying, ain't it.God forbid they have to live in a country where the locals don't roll out a red carpet for them everywhere they go.

>It is not your moral obligation, but it would certanly help you to improve your country
Only thing that would improve this place would a mass hanging of our politicians and an end to corruption. We need people with vision at the helm who are capable of making the tough decisions that would benefit the future generations. Russkies are literally nothing in the grand scheme of things as long as their very own country next door doesn't chimp out.
>>
>>70992071
No of course not, and although there is still some resentment and revanchism, federalism and cultural independence solved a lot of issues. Of course for us that wasn't hard, as we just made the language-border, which was the old Roman road from Köln to Boulogne-sur-Mer, the border between communities and both parties agreed to give minorities in places close to the language border certain facilities (bilingual signs, being able to ask for administration to be served in both languages).

It works to some extent, because in the monolingual areas you have to learn the language of the community. But still in some areas like the Flemish ring around Brussels French-speaking richfags buy all the properties and demand to be served in French there, or they demand a "corridor" to Wallonia through Flemish soil. Naturally there is a lot of hatred between both communities there.

I can't say to what extent such a thing would work in the Baltics. When the minority lives spread over a whole country, this can't work.
>>
>>70992828
>They have the same chances at education as everyone else. Pick a school, study hard, get good education. There is no segregation unless they want for there to be one.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe there are both Latvian and Russian schools in your country, and Russian schools have a far worse quality than the Latvian ones. At least this was the situation in Estoina

>You mean democracy? Yes, horrifying, ain't it.God forbid they have to live in a country where the locals don't roll out a red carpet for them everywhere they go.
Democracy is great, but it always runs in danger of opressing minoirties. That's why minorities need special protection in a democratic system

>Only thing that would improve this place would a mass hanging of our politicians and an end to corruption.
I hope for you that you will successfully manage to fight the corruption, which is a huge problem in pretty much every post-communist country

>>70992828
Tell me, how could Russians in 90' learn your language, if all of you lived in one country where you need to know only one, which isn't yours? Let's say they are 50yo or older - how could they manage to learn the new language that is one of the most difficult languages in Europe? This is impossible for anyone either you are Russian or not.
>>
>>70992967
I think the big advantage of Belgium is that there was little ill will between the Flemish and Wallonish population.
In baltic states, Russians are naturally seen as invaders, which makes integration and peaceful coexistance more difficult

sure, they can do what they want, and I agree that opression was way worse in the USSR.
But I think they would benefit from helping their russian minorities to become successful members of society

>>70992999
>Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe there are both Latvian and Russian schools in your country, and Russian schools have a far worse quality than the Latvian ones. At least this was the situation in Estoina
There are. We are such fascists and oppressors that we offer them a choice to go to Russian schools. Key word is "offer", no one forces them to. There is no school in the country that will say no to an ethnic Russian kid unless he's a literal retard that doesn't know a single word in Latvian, in which case I think you can understand why he'd be told to look elsewhere. Not like there is an excuse. There are fucking Chinese kids in schools here now. If they can make it, anyone else has no excuse.

Again, there is no segregation unless they want for there to be one.

>Democracy is great, but it always runs in danger of opressing minoirties. That's why minorities need special protection in a democratic system
Yeah nah. They don't like it, they can leave. There will be no ass kissing here after our colorful history.

>>70993154
>This is impossible for anyone either you are Russian or not.
So let me get this straight. Latvians that were forced to learn Russian and German for centuries could do it regardless of their age, but these faggots find it impossible despite living in the land for decades? Well, friend, I have good news for them and you. Their very own country is one train ride away. Tickets cost like 10 euros and can be made one way.
>>
>>70993393
Learning a second language shouldn't be that hard. All the USSR minorities had to learn russian

>>70993154
heh are you retarded?
everyone speaks the language in the country, you could even learn a bit without even trying because you would heard them speak every single day on the street on tv and so on so you would just need to be more into it and try to communicate on your own, but apparently they just don't give a shit

But as the czech poster pointed out, many people were in their 50s or even older when suddenly the need to learn a second language arose. Basically, they were dammed to become the lower class of society

You're treating Russians as brain damaged imbeciles despite them giving the world excellent artists, writers and scientists. Trust me, they can do it. When push comes to shove and you play the idiot for long enough, even these 50+ old characters start speaking Latvian. Broken one, but it's more than usable. he only reason why they don't do it more often in their day to day lives is because...they don't want to.
