More can always be said, but meanwhile, look at this answer from /u/poob1x
I highly recommend reading Arctic Mirrors: Russia and the Small Peoples of the North by Yuri Slezkine if you’re interested in this subject. It is, as far as I’m aware, the most comprehensive English-language work on the subject.
If you’re interested in a more regionally-specific study, this is technically an anthropological work, but The Tenacity of Ethnicity: A Siberian Saga in Global Perspective by Marjorie Mandelstam Balzer is an excellent work on the Khanty people that has several chapters on their history of interaction with and eventual subjugation by the Russian state. It’s also just a really great read for anyone interested in indigenous persistence and survival.
Edit: I could've worded it better, its not meant to be a "whataboutism" question.
