Did the actor Dmitry Pevtsov propose to assign Putin the title of live incarnation of Jesus?

In social networks, the news was widely dispersed about the initiative of the State Duma deputy, the famous actor Dmitry Pevtsov, to introduce the title of “live incarnation of Jesus” and assign him to President Putin. We decided to check if the singers said something like that.

Photos of the record from the Telegram channel Dmitry Pevtsov can be found in all popular social networks: Facebook users most often refer to This entrythat appeared on the morning of September 9th. Many are limited to quote from the same photograph: “Consider that this is an official deputy appeal to the Synod. I propose to introduce the title of "embodiment of living Jesus" and the first to appropriate him to Putin Vladimir Vladimirovich. " Post in Telegram I scored more than 120,000 views, the same records are also popular in Livejournal, "VKontakte" And Twitter.

With a careful study of the photograph, not the most ordinary username is immediately striking - @dima_macho. There is no such channel in Telegram, on Twitter under this username Empty account. Not a single entry in social networks distributing the proposal of Pevtsov, there is no link to the source - only a photo of the recording.

Using TGSTAT data, it can be argued that the first references to the news of the rank of live incarnation of Jesus appear on September 8, not earlier than 18:55 (the time that stands in the screenshot) and no later than 21:43 Moscow time (the first accessible record in Telegram). One of the first about the proposal of Pevtsov Writes In his Telegram channel, philologist Tatyana May, who, however, has no doubt that this is a fake. The next day, September 9, at 9:05 in the Telegram channel “The City of Zhupov”, which is conducted by the writer, a former professor of the University of Saratov Vera Afanasyeva, Placed The screenshot of the alleged entry of Pevtsov is already. But even earlier than in Telegram, the screenshot appeared on Twitter. At 19:44 Moscow time, Oles Filonko user (9109 readers) Placed This screenshot with a short comment: "Dima - are you a fool?" We were not able to find earlier records on this topic, so it is quite possible that this tweet is the source.

The Telegram channel Dmitry Pevtsov started on November 16, 2021, when he became a deputy of the State Duma from Moscow in the constituency No. 200. In the first Records, which is fixed now, he promised to share the news about his legislative activity. But the userneum of the Telegram channel Pevtsov is completely different- PEVTSOV_MOSCOW, and there are much less subscribers than in the photo - 8000.

None of the blogs that the singers lead (or which are conducted on his behalf), there is no record of the lively embodiment of Jesus - neither in Tiktoknor in Instagramnor on his official sitededicated, however, artist concert programs. For September 8, the day when Pevtsov allegedly made his unusual proposal, there are three records in the Telegram channel: one is a repost on the collection of ammunition for the Donbass, the rest are religious quotes. 

It can be assumed that those who distributed a photo with the proposal of Pevtsov were affected by earlier records of the actor and deputy. Most of his public speeches are devoted to either Orthodoxy or praise to President Putin. In February 2022, Dmitry Pevtsov is one of the first supported The invasion of Ukraine, saying that, in his opinion, "the president does what and is needed at this moment." Nevertheless, the proposal to introduce the title of live incarnation of Jesus and appropriate him to President Putin has nothing to do with Pevtsov, this is a fake.
