Main narratives:
- Alleged claims of rusophobia
- General anti-government sentiments
Overview:
Social media agents primarily focused on spreading anti-governmental sentiments, making claims of Russophobia and, in some cases, Russification. One example is the claim that switching to the Estonian language in all schools forces Estonian students to teach or tutor Russian students in Russian, ultimately leading to the Russification of the country.
Another topic raised throughout the week was the claim that the director of the Ministry of Health plans to raise the price of doctor’s visits, making medical evaluations unaffordable for lower-income families. Along similar lines, there were numerous posts about the government increasing taxes and the cost of living in Estonia as a way to extract more money from its citizens.
Finally, a post alleged that the Estonian government and police departments have been purchasing new weapons in preparation for future citizen riots.
