Russian censors filter the use of not only swear words in the context of the Russian president, but also such as "KGB" ;, "king" and “corruption”.
In the archive of Roskomnadzor, which Belarusian “cyber partisans” extracted back in November 2022, words were found that should not fall into the same context as Russian President Vladimir Putin. There are more than seven hundred of them in the list.
Mediazona reports this.
As it turned out, Roskomnadzor conducts systematic monitoring of social networks in search of publications and comments offensive to Vladimir Putin. There is a document in official correspondence called “Keywords-images”, a four-page list of swear words, vulgar or simply ambiguous words, which, according to censors, should not be next to the name or image of the Russian president.
It is considered a violation not only the use of words from the mentioned list at the address of Putin, but also in the messages where he is mentioned, as well as in the captions to the photo.
It follows from the document that Putin should not be mentioned in the context of pedophilia: for example, called a “pervert” and a “lover of kids.” Also, Putin should not be associated with sex, but this section, in addition to all known swear words, for some reason also included such words as “elections”, “term” and “rallies”.
Most of them are swear words and obscene words. In addition to the obviously offensive “stupid”, “asshole” and “schmyr”, this list contains the words “KGB”, “tsar” and “corruption”.
The Roskomnadzor archive also has a classifier for “graphic entities” — description of pictures for automatic determination of the image of the president by the neural network of the Oculus system. Among them is Putin in the form of a crab, a moth, Hitler and a vampire.
Recall that the image of Russian President Vladimir Putin as a masculine macho has been built for many years to satisfy the needs of Russians who, after the turbulent 90s, yearned for the strong hand of a leader who will lead the country to stability and prosperity. This image of Putin has taken root in the West as well.
