Social media outpaces Putin messaging machine

Social media outpaces Putin messaging machine Robyn Dixon, The Washington Post Jan. 29, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail MOSCOW - Vasily Surov s first protest rally lasted 10 minutes. Riot police dragged away the 21-year-old student shortly after he arrived at last Saturday s rally in Moscow in support of opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Now Surov faces charges for attending a banned protest. A surge of young protesters calling for Navalny s release from custody - many who have never been to a demonstration before - could be a worrying sign for President Vladimir Putin, whose popularity is falling sharply among younger Russians. It also points to another divide playing out in Russia: As social media sites such as TikTok and Instagram have helped energize young Russians against Putin, the Kremlin s attempts at countermessaging seem stuck in another age.
