The results of two different so- ciological studies on racism and the “national question” were published recently. One of the studies was a traditional survey conducted by the Lev- ada Center, which has researched the level of xenophobia in the Russian Federation for many years. The second study, by Mikhailov & Partners, posed the vaguer question of “Toler-ance: Is Russia for it or against it?”; the survey results were presented as part of a discussion about whether or not the time for an “ethical revolution” has arrived. There was also much talk about “new ethics,” which are much more apparent on social media than in the real life of Russians. As it turns out, ethical news includes the ideas of rejecting racism and sexism (including workplace harassment and domestic violence) and recognizing the rights of LGBT+ people, ethnic minorities, and “socially vulnerable groups,” to which researchers ascribe persons with dis-abilities and multi-children families. this approach, it’s no surprise that the older generation of respondents were more inclined to support “socially vulnerable” people, while younger people, who are active on social media and knowledgeable about Western trends, #MeToo and #BLM , were more likely to acknowledge the rights of minorities, although they weren’t prepared to take any positive measures to overcome discrimination (benefits, and Participants Mikhailov & Partners the groups, discrimi- (almost one-third of it impossible it (the
