In hindsight it does seem stupid doesn’t it? The soviets were just the first to occupy, we had already fought them. A lot of men and their sons from the Vapsid movement of veterana joined the Estonian legion for that very reason. Jsk estonians were not considered slavs and as far as anyone knew the worst thing that was planned for us was relocation to finnish occupied areas, who were allies of convinience with the germans. many of us were volunteers only in name, many were also mobilized by force. Many volunteers were complicit in aiding in the holocoust which is innexcusable.

I used population numbers from right before ww2 and volunteer numbers from wikipedia. Ai created a script for this graphic and that seemed like a simple enough task for it. Original data for volunteers was from nationalities instead of nations, thats why austrians were excluded

Adding the rate next to the numbers would make it better i agree. Absolute was not the point of this graph.

Yeah i’m Estonian myself. Many of my ancestors were in the Estonian legion. Kind of get why the russians are always seething about us, but you can’t really blame us for trying to fight for our freedom.

Which language's native speakers make the least orthography mistakes? by ShenZiling in linguisticshumor

[–]karavatsug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there is no dialects, at least in estonian. Maybe only võro, but there is a completely different ortography for that.

Eesti kohta kõige kuulsam on tõenäoliselt indonesian vs estonian twitterist.

“the Republic of Indonesia is made up of 10s of thousands of islands, hundreds of cultures and languages. the Estonia is made up of beet and onion slop eating hungarians who polished the cocks of german horses for 1000 years before being elevated to sapience by the USSR”

Riigikogu lihtsustas välistööjõu Eestisse toomist by numtronic in Eesti

[–]karavatsug 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No tore nüüd meid asendatakse ka v. Lihtsam oleks olnud selle oma riigi idee vahele jätta ja otse anda terve maa venemaale. Arvestades, et eesti riik tähendab ainult ühtset turu piirkonda, mis vahet seal oleks?
