This award is named after the all-time favorite face of russian false narratives, Mr. Lenin. He declared to bring justice and rule by the people but instead established the first totalitarian regime in history. To this day, his historical track record - mass killings, widespread usage of terror, and deliberate suppression of diversity - has remained relatively unknown. Moreover, after Putin dubbed him the “creator of Ukraine”, Mr. Lenin has come to symbolize one of the biggest false Russian narratives of the 21st century.
