This message from the main pro-Kremlin agent in Ukraine – Viktor Medvedchuk – about alleged “secret plan of dumbing down the nation” is so much more than a conspiracy-based nonsense it appears to be.
It is a variation on a one of the most used #KremlinNarratives about Ukraine being a “colony of the West”.
This narrative is used by pro-Kremlin forces in the wake of local elections in fall to spread fear, destabilize the country and present their agenda as the only possible alternative.
