I think her complaint then is irrelevant to anarchism vs communism. It was not the existence of a state that led to Russification, it was chauvinism and absolute assumptions about what development looks like. Anarchists can make the exact same mistakes. Greater autonomy could help, but that autonomy would only be able to stem the pressure if the Kazakh polity has power and is organized well.

No matter what one thinks of Russification, it is just not an issue that can be chalked up to statism
