Do you get fined for not celebrating iyc?
Today is State Day in Lithuania. You are legally obligated to raise the national flag outside your home or else you will get fined.

Even if the law is real, is it actually enforced?

Yes there have been instances of people being fined and there's a whole campaign reminding people not to forget, usually the day prior. Here's the one for today's celebration.

Fly a soviet flag along with the regular flag this year to piss people off.

Flying any Soviet flags would net you an even larger fine going into the hundreds (up to 700 if I'm not mistaken)

Normally one person is responsible for raising the flag outside the commieblock for everyone else. If he doesn't then he gets fined rather than the entire commieblock.

Imagine I just moved to the country the day before because of a job offer. I wouldn't have any chance of knowing it was a necessity in that case.
