On January 22, an anti-liberal Facebook page “Pressტიტუცია” (“Presstitution”) published a photo of a doll with a caption “SOS liberosaur propagandists sell dolls of undefined sex”.
The photo that Pressტიტუცია ascribes to liberals and uses it to reiterate anti-liberal, anti-Western and pro-Kremlin narrative was taken in Novosibirsk, Russia.
The given photo, according to Google and Yandex searches, can be found in both Russian and English-language platforms. Both indicate an Instagram user revizor.nsk as the source who published the photo of the doll on January 2, 2020.
