The letter says that the party decided to congratulate the journalists and give “mystical magnets” developed by one of the leaders of the Opposition Bloc, Alexander Vilkul, “in collaboration with a team of near-party scientists.”
The letter is also accompanied by magnets on which famous politicians from the “Opposition Bloc” - Nestor Shufrich, Natalya Korolevskaya, Vadim Novinsky, Boris Kolesnikov, Yulia Levochkina and others (17 cards in total) are depicted as comic book heroes.
Magnets attached to the refrigerator, the letter states, will help ordinary kefir acquire the properties of bio-yogurt, and placed on office equipment will add to its productivity. In addition, miracle magnets will help the team protect itself from the machinations of competitors and tax lawlessness.
It is worth noting that last year similar magnets were produced by the non-existent Dynasty Foundation sent to volunteers “to protect the military”.
There is, as you might guess, a sample of the so-called “black PR” spread by Vilkul’s opponents, allegedly associated with the Dnepropetrovsk oligarch Igor Kolomoisky.
Initially, the publication “Dynasty”, which does not have an imprint, which is mentioned in the letter, was distributed in Krivoy Rog, where Alexander Vilkul’s father won the election of mayor of the city.
