Estonia Weekly: Demonised and controlled teachers

This week there was more talk about the economy, including Estonia's assistance to Ukraine and its effect on the budget and economy, as well as the salaries of the Estonian politicians and how they are being paid more than teachers and paramedics, even though they do less to contribute to society. A missile attack in Ukraine was also mentioned, as well as America's and Britain's assistance with this claimed deliberate strike against civilians that killed and injured many. The switch of language of instruction was also brought up, and some teachers are struggling with learning Estonian and are scared of losing their jobs. Finally, there was a video link posted about the deportation of non-Estonian citizens and how those who are simply expressing their opinions are going to be deported as well.

Main narratives:

  • The government is willing to spend 10 million Euros on defence but will not raise the salaries of teachers
  • The Estonian government is using the school system and teachers to instil “perverted Western ideas” into the children’s minds
  • Russian school teachers are not going on strike because the masses already demonise them
