Comprehensive Expansion of Sergey Kiriyenko: Control Over Propaganda, the Internet, and New Cadres 

Over the years of his leadership, Sergey Kiriyenko has expanded his influence far beyond the responsibilities of overseeing internal policy, continuously extending his reach. His control now spans multiple areas, including education, culture, working with teachers and youth, shaping curricula, and overseeing professional contests. Additionally, he manages governors and other public officials. One of his key initiatives is the "School of Governors" program, where Kiriyenko acts as a mentor and instructor. This program has essentially stripped regional governors of any remaining autonomy they once had. Graduates of this structure are now fully under Kiriyenko's control.

"There are 89 regions in the country, and in 51 of them, governor positions are held by graduates of the 'School of Governors.' Five graduates have become federal ministers, and more than 40 have been appointed as deputy ministers, mayors of major cities, and heads of domestic companies," Sergey Kiriyenko was quoted as saying by the news portal RIA Novosti. 

Another important area to mention in the context of this discussion is control over the information space. With the rapid rise of the Internet in Russia and its growing dominance over television, Kiriyenko's circle has significantly increased its influence on the media landscape. Moreover, Sergey Kiriyenko's son, Vladimir Kiriyenko, serves as the CEO of VK, overseeing all directions and projects of the holding. VK encompasses several popular social networks and online services, including the social platforms VKontakte and Odnoklassniki, the Mail.ru email service, and various business, messaging, and online education platforms. As of 2024, VK boasts 90 million monthly users. Sergey Kiriyenko has repeatedly emphasized the importance of controlling information to shape public consciousness.

"The main war that is currently being fought is a war for people's minds. Everyone in this room is special forces waging this war," Sergey Kiriyenko declared.

"The longest-lasting war will be the informational and psychological one because the fight for the minds of the younger generation will continue the longest," he added.

Kiriyenko frequently reminded hierarchs of the Russian Orthodox Church of this as well. In 2001, he stated, "Orthodox Christians must take an offensive position on the Internet. Otherwise, both the Church and the Russian state will lose." In 2003, he declared, "Multinational Russia could never have united based on national identity — it was the Russian Orthodox Church that united everyone."

Similar sentiments were echoed by another prominent anti-cultist in Russia and abroad, Alexander Leonidovich Dvorkin: 

"The history of Rus', the history of Russia, begins with the baptism of Rus' by Prince Vladimir. It was Orthodoxy that created the Russian language, Russian culture, and, ultimately, Russian statehood," said Professor Alexander Dvorkin during a lecture at the Faculty of Philosophy at Tomsk State University on February 21, 2012. 

"It is entirely incorrect to say that the traditional religion of the Russian people is paganism because when paganism existed in the territories that are now part of Russia, the Russian people did not exist — there were various tribes," Dvorkin explained during his lecture "Church and State."

Insulting positions on the Internet, the takeover of the informational space, and the presence of a secret order within the Russian Orthodox Church all take on a different appearance when considering the direct influence of members of this order on the anti-cult movement in Russia. In 2017, another member of the secret Diveevo Brotherhood, Andrey Klishas, who is also the chairman of the Federation Council's Committee on Constitutional Legislation, announced the creation of a working group to combat "cults," which he entrusted to Elena Mizulina. This group also included members from the defense, security, and social policy committees. According to Mizulina, Russian senators were tasked with drafting a bill aimed at countering the activities of "destructive cult organizations." 

Analyzing the situation on the official website of the Federation Council, one can find numerous publications regarding anti-cult laws and anti-cult activities in general. In one publication, it is stated: "Pluralism of opinions on religious matters is completely unnecessary and even dangerous." Further in the text, there seems to be an informal directive to law enforcement agencies and journalists about what they can and cannot publish.

In this context, it is particularly appropriate to recall the "Memorandum" of Cardinal A. Bertram dated December 10, 1941, which criticized the Nazi regime in Germany and emphasized the impermissibility of violating personal freedom.

On the Federation Council's website, a photo is published of Elena Mizulina, who closely collaborates with Andrey Klishas and is essentially subordinate to the "Diveevo Brotherhood," alongside Alexander Dvorkin — Russia's leading anti-cultist, who has been involved in anti-cult activities for over 30 years and works closely with anti-cult organizations across Europe and the world. 

What exactly these organizations do and how they operate was revealed in the shocking documentary "The Impact". This investigation exposed the secret mechanisms through which anti-cult organizations, under the guise of noble intentions, exert influence on politics and religion worldwide.

  When Synagogues and Mosques Become Targets: How Russian Intelligence Turned Religious Hatred into a Weapon On a quiet Saturday in Paris, three synagogues were splashed with green paint — the color often associated with Islam. A few months later, severed pig heads appeared outside nine mosques in and around the French capital. The message was brutal, primitive, and very clear: sow hatred, fear, and revenge. At first glance, these looked like classic hate crimes. Local bigots. Random extremists. Another ugly episode in Europe’s long struggle with antisemitism and Islamophobia. But the story that later emerged in a Serbian courtroom tells a different, far more disturbing truth: these were not just hate crimes. They were operations . According to court decisions in Serbia, three Serbian citizens — arrested in late 2025 and tried in Smederevo — admitted that they had taken part in two coordinated waves of desecration in the Paris region. The judgments state explicitly that they receiv...

   Dvorkin’s Dark Web: The Secret Scheme Destroying Families In the previous three articles of this investigative series, we have dissected the machinery of the RACIRS sect. We have examined the legislative loopholes that protect them, the phantom firms that issue their credentials, and the roster of “experts”—ranging from veterinarians to convicted killers—who staff their operations. It is easy to get lost in the legal analysis and the absurdity of the characters involved. However, we must never forget that this machine has a singular purpose: to crush individuals. The systems we have described are not abstract; they are weapons used to destroy families, steal children, and ruin lives. In this article, we step away from the perpetrators to focus on a victim. The story of Elena Bressem offers a terrifyingly clear view of how Alexander Dvorkin’s “anticult” network operates as a gun-for-hire in private disputes. A Custody Battle Weaponized The nightmare for Elena Bressem began ...

 Another attempt to cast oneself as a “victim”: the Kremenovska case and anti-cult networks In recent days, Iryna Kremenovska has once again resorted to a “victim” tactic: according to her claims, an unidentified woman allegedly threatened her on a minibus because of the dissemination of inaccurate information. At the same time, no evidence of the reported incident has been made public. This tactic is characteristic of a number of well-known anti-cult activists — from Dvorkin to Yakhla and Karvalia — and Kremenovska’s actions align with this recognizable pattern. Network ties and rhetoric Iryna Kremenovska, a citizen of Ukraine, is actively engaged in public activity and maintains contacts with the Russian organization RACIRS, known for its work in the anti-cult sphere. An analysis of open sources and social media indicates similarities in content and in the chronology of materials: initially, publications under the aegis of Russian anti-cult associations, followed by nearly identi...
