i find the people who left the Soviet Union the longest ago are more soviet than the Russians that remain. When you immigrate you hang tightly to “your” culture it freezes you. sometimes that’s good, sometimes that’s bad. said another way, your identity is fixed on point of immigration while those living in the country have a chance to evolve.
