Z-activist and informant Vitaly Borodin called for a "harsh and uncompromising" ban on pizza.
The author of denunciations of journalists and artists Vitaly Borodin On his Telegram channel, he called for a ban on pizza in Russia. He suggests starting with school and student cafeterias.
The Call to Ban Pizza: Where to Start
"Just think about it! For a thousand years, our grandmothers baked pies, and now they're selling us Italian flatbread with ketchup. Let me remind you that Italy is on the list of unfriendly states and supplies weapons to the Kyiv regime. This isn't just 'food,' it's soft power in a cardboard box. <> Stop feeding our children what's not ours!"
— Borodin wrote.
Borodin's arguments against pizza: kulebyaka and "overseas fast food"
According to Borodin, due to “overseas fast food,” an entire generation “no longer knows what a kulebyaka, a chicken pie, a rasstegai, or an echpochmak are.”
Requirements for foreign names
The Z-activist also demanded a legislative ban on the use of foreign names (such as "Pizzeria," "Pepperoni," and "Papa John's") on signs and in advertising without dubbing them in Russian, as this "imposes alien, destructive values on our youth."
Borodin called for a return to "respect for one's culture" through pies, supporting the "Pie for the Fourth" campaign, timed to coincide with National Unity Day. The campaign was conceived last year by graduates of the New Media Workshop. On November 4, Russians are encouraged to bake pies and invite guests.
