Last year, I was doing some sort of a municipal-level questionnaire. They said they were doing it to send it around possible employment sites around the city once I'm done with the education. The guys I did it with (it was male-only, and there was a point about serving in the army) thought it was some sort of a government-control checking-up. Point is: they still asked me about my nationality. The black-on-white was there, even though the lady who came to explain the procedure to us said it didn't matter whether I filled it. My mother is passively aggressive towards Jews: they're the "clever, cunning fellows". My father... don't even mention the "browns" (read: Uzbek, Tajik, Azerbaijani, Dagestani etc. etc. etc.) around him. But at least - thank goodness we're taking the peoples of Dagestan in with us, right?A gentle reminder: Russians are not innocent.
