Why is Eastern Europe so socially conservative?
(hexbear.net)
Whenever I see opinion poll maps on :reddit-logo: from Europe with questions like
-
Would you be ok with your son/daughter dating a person of a different race?
-
Would you be comfortable with your son/daughter dating a member of the same sex?
-
My country has too many immigrants, yes or no?
There is always a very noticeable difference between Western and Eastern Europe, with the West (and Scandanavia) being WAY more progressive, and Eastern European / former Soviet states being exceedingly conservative, particularly countries like Czech.
Why is this?
Maybe I'm just naive but I would think that the legacy of the USSR would cause the exact opposite tendency.
I also have no real context as I have never stepped foot in The Old World.
This is exactly the materialist analysis/explanation I was looking for, thank you comrade :fidel-salute:
FR, everything else is just saying 'well actually western europe is pretty bad though' which is true but they dont have fucking LGBT exclusion zones
