Yes, it is all true. Even VTsIOM grudgingly confirmed that Putin’s rating has started sliding down.

Although, really, it has not slid anywhere.

It has simply settled, the way any decomposing substance settles.

Putin’s rating is falling, even according to VTsIOM data

Even Putinist sociology is already recording a decline: the approval level has dropped from 79% in 2024 to 66.7% in April 2026.

The fall has been especially noticeable in recent months, down almost 9% since the start of the year.

It is too early to rejoice. The Kremlin’s political technologists know the elementary methods for refreshing and sublimating a rating.

There are known informational yeasts that will easily return adoration of the dictator to its previous levels.

The Russian popular mass could stop loving the ghoul only if it itself stopped loving blood and theatrical greatness.

And the mass has been unable to do that for a couple or three centuries now.

It does not try, and it does not want to.

Intellectualization could become the starter culture of nationwide contempt for the Chekist, but one cannot even dream of that.

On the contrary, the people so easily went in for mass idiotization, because they love that state.

Nevertheless, yes, the rating has settled.

Those who rejoiced at the sight of the shootings in Bucha and the bombing of Kyiv have gone a little sour because they are being prevented from watching reels and nudes.
