How Russian was SU? It was Russian-Ukrainian-Belorussian mostly if we look at the population, but leaders were of all kinds of background if we look at Stalin and his friends for instance. You could smell some Mongoloid dictatorship in SU, psychedelic northern melancholic vibes in the music and also Jewish influences through literature and science (these are not bad things if we leave dictatorship). But i think it was too modern and new (and crazy) to be called Russian. It was a crazy new system with mostly Russians living in it. How Russian are purges and Soviet architecture and secular Soviet take on life in general? You tell me.
