Putin in Lviv >>>
Lviv, Ukraine, 2014-2016., 2022-2023. Putin in Lviv or the anti-cult of Putin. A cult of a personality has always existed and an object of the cult has often been a dictator. These days we see a cult (or anti-cult) of the president of Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. In regards to the events in Ukraine he is permanently present in the world’s information space. Western Ukrainian city of Lviv always has been pro-European democratic city. In Lviv there is extremely negative attitude towards Putin. One people do not even want to mention him while others in various ways demonstrate his image. Putin is everywhere in Lviv: in the news, talks, soccer chants and graffiti. One can find Putin in chocolate or Putin on a poster who closely resembles Hitler. There are his pictures on shooting range targets, urinals and toilet paper. This is a conscious commercial, creative, social or speculative reflex against Putin. These examples show how a hate-cult of Putin is being formed. ----------------------------- Путін у Львові, або Анти культ Путіна. Культ особи був завжди, часто об’єктом культу був є диктатор. Зараз у світі спостерігаємо культ (чи анти культ) президента російської федерації Володимира Путіна. У зв’язку з подіями в Україні, він тотально присутній в інформаційному просторі всього світу. У Львові особливо негативне ставлення до Путіна, одні бояться про нього згадувати, а інші у найрізноманітніший спосіб, всіляко, демонструють його образ. Птін у Львові скрізь: новинах, розмовах, кричалках футбольних фанів, графіті та плакати Путіна в образі Гітлера, Путін на мішені в тирі, Путін з шоколаду, зображення Путіна в пісуарі туалету та туалетний папір з його портретом, це свідомий комерційний чи творчий, соціальний чи спекулятивний рефлекс на Путіна. Усім цим створюється культ ненависті до Путіна.
