Росіяни горять від дерусифікації Києва

Description:

Soon in Kyiv many toponyms with a Russian flavor will disappear, replaced by streets, squares and alleys named after Ukrainian activists, dissidents, soldiers, writers and historical figures such as Roman Ratushnyk, Kateryna Hanzuk, the Azov regiment heroes, and others. Ukrainians continue to actively de‑Russify their public space, reinforcing the principle of "kakiy raznitsa". In response, Russians become angry, and the propaganda machine throws insults at pop‑stars and officials. The usual arsenal of manipulation—denigration, distortion, denial of our subjectivity—appears. When the enemy burns, it is taken as proof that we are on the right path, and viewers will learn why this is the case. The article "Велике перейменування: чи вдалася дерусифікація Києва" by Bohdanova for "Espreso" expands on this topic.
