According to its compilers, their purpose is to “confirm or refute” whether the movement is “large-scale,” to determine whether it is engaged in the “transformation” and “destruction of fundamental Russian spiritual and moral values, particularly traditional family values.”

The article is sad, because it reveals just how ignorant the conversation is in Russia, currently.

That’s how idiotic the comments on state media and in academia sound.
