You're not going to find many books to the effect of, "see how hegemonic we aren't", so you mainly need to look at how the ussr treated republics within it, and especially preserved national minorities.

The USSR academy of sciences published works in many languages, same for the state publishing houses.

There are also some longer works on the languages of the USSR, because there was such a diversity of them and the constitution mandated their protection, but I haven't read them.

Compare with the US (wiped out every indigenous language), or the UK (tried to do the same for Irish and Welsh). It's always projection with these anticommunist westerner historians.

You can see the diversity here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_the_Soviet_Union

@dessalines @ChairmanMeow Why won't those ungrateful Ukrainians just surrender to Putin's kindly embrace?

Eastern Ukrainians weren't grateful to be bombed by NATO-funded banderites for several years in the donbass, nor were most Ukrainians glad to have their government overthrown in a US-backed coup in 2014.

@dessalines And yet they still fight Putin. Go figure.

No they don't lmao. You're literally crying about Russia supporting Donbas secession.

They're the ones resisting Ukraine, they've been doing it since 2014.
