Well, might as well have fun with this

Apparently, a Russian court has sentenced German artist "Tilly" in absentia for the  "crime" of making fun of Vladimir Putin and Patriarch Kyrill at a Karnival (Fasching) parade in Dusseldorf.  Now for the uninitiated, at Karnival parades, you can make fun of just about anything, and the last Fasching Parade where certain political statements were verboten would have been during World War Two, if you catch my drift.  Tilly has also done a float featuring Trump with a swastika--any other day in Germany, that's banned, but not on Rosenmontag.

So more or less, by trying to prosecute this "offense", Putin joins the company of no less than Adolf Hitler.  Since Putin's been putting up statues of his hero (and Hitler's buddy, well, until he invaded the USSR) Stalin, that sounds about right.  And so let's see what Tilly did to 'ol Vlad:

Verdict; given that Kyrill is, like Putin, a former employee of the KGB, and has spent a fair amount of time and effort backing Putin's series of war crimes in Ukraine, this is absolutely true.  In civilized countries, defamation has to make you look worse than you actually are.  We might say that Tilly's work actually downplays the evil of Patriarch Kyrill and Fuehrer Putin.
