Russians are funding content with pretty much the same narrative which was summarized in the last phase of this article:
> the recent, nationalism-inspired wave of alphabet reform is a risky gambit with dubious benefits.
Completely unfounded, unsubstantiated closing statement with a threat it in. "Don't change your alphabet, you nationalists, or we will invade." Go chase your warship, russia.
Such articles with content nearly identical to this one pop up regularly, but it is the first time I am seeing it in English.
- reisse 4y agoDo you have any proofs of the funding? JSTOR is funded by Andrew Mellow Foundation [1]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSTOR https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSTOR
- Aspos 4y agoI don't have any proofs. I just see a coordinated effort and this particular article miraculously matches the narrative. Pure coincidence, of course. Not sure who Andrew Mellow is and not sure how they vet their content creators.
