Shaman was in 2022 an absolutely unknown singer who has had a meteoric career since the beginning of the war appealing to the lowest patriotic instincts of the Russians.
Chance or not, Shaman, whose real name is Yaroslav Dronov, launched its first great success, “We will rise”, on February 23, 2022, that is, on the eve of the beginning of the “special military operation”.
Although Kremlin says that Russian president, Vladimir Putin, does not know his work, appointed him ‘artist of the people’, the greatest recognition for actors, musicians and singers in this country, who usually receive it only after long years of work.
Shaman, a prefabricated product with little creativity for its detractors, has also aroused criticism for its aesthetics, reminiscent of parafascist subcultures, more typical of Hitler youth and the 30s of the twentieth century.
Meanwhile, Mizúlina is the daughter of a high official close to Kremlin, who promoted controversial laws against homosexual propaganda, abortion and adoption of Russian children in foreign couples.
In recent years, Yekaterina labeled her reputation as a betrayal by furiously chasing those Internet users who discredit the special military operation ‘in Ukraine.
“Delation is anonymous communication and we do everything openly”
“Delation is anonymous communication and we do everything openly,” said Mizúlina, Chief of the League for a safe Internet, who has denounced dozens of Russian bloggers and artists.
According to the OVD-INFO organization, there are already hundreds of people who have been investigated or fined and more than twenty are condemned by accusations on very suspicious occasions.
The Kremlin and the Russian Orthodox Church firmly defend family values and call women to have more than three children, but are tolerant with the divorce of public figures such as Russian President himself.
