I think it might have to do with Protestantism, which emphasises a "personal relationship with Jesus". Orthodoxy is more about community rituals and tradition. My ancestors on my father's side were from the Pinsk area in Belarus, so I know this mindset quite well. I also think even Catholicism does not encourage an Anglo-style awakening. I don't think there were too many hippies in Italy.

Quote:As for generations, I guess you could say that the current youth generation is more of a weird 2T/3T hybrid if it is even possible. The kids in school now behave more like civics and that is a 4T generation on the making.

What about the following:
The old Soviet elites were never destroyed completely, so Putin could rebuild the system rather quickly. The freedom turnings were shorter than they should be according to S&H, and they left the populace scared. My father's childhood friend was killed on the street in Petersburg in the 90s, it happened during the day.
