>In Russia they literally *only* write in cursive and handwriting block letters for day-to-day tasks doesn't happen. We are getting cucked by our own language.
this is not a fault of the Latin script, rather it is a fault of the Cyrillic script
cyrillic is totally unsuitable for being written with a pen without using cursive because it basically does not have a lower case, lower case cyrillic is just block capitals

in latin-based alphabets there are very few letters that are the same shape in both upper and lower case, only:
cosvwxz

whereas in cyrillic-based alphabets the only letters NOT the same shape in upper and lower case are
A/a E/e У/y (pushing it)

so in order for Russian to be fluidly written with a pen, you have to use cursive, otherwise you are just writing in block capitals

English is not like this and thus cursive is not a necessity
