Russian officials revealed Cheburashka's true face: #ShameReview from "NotMoscow"

State Duma deputies held a roundtable discussion on how to protect children from "destructive content." Among other things, they discussed the popular trend in Russia of replacing good heroes with characters like Shrek or Mattel dolls—"not bad, but with external and internal flaws."

The Z-patriots' favorite, "toxic Cheburashka," also made the list of films not recommended for children (it's unlikely the deputies meant he's become one of the symbols of the "SVO"). However, other Russian films weren't overlooked either:

"The protagonist [of "Finist: The First Bogatyr"] is a jerk, a narcissistic rooster or pheasant, who doesn't change throughout the film," said parliamentarian and actor Dmitry Pevtsov. "Baba Yaga is sexually preoccupied with her youth; she has no other concerns."
