The statement 'Pavlik Morozov lives' in conjunction with the image and the conversation about MSNBC interviewing kids of January 6 protesters appears to draw a parallel between the historical figure Pavlik Morozov and contemporary events. Pavlik Morozov is a controversial figure from Soviet history, often depicted as a boy who denounced his own family to the authorities, which has been used as a symbol of loyalty to the state over family. The statement and image suggest a comparison between this historical narrative and the current situation involving children of January 6 protesters, implying a critique of the media's role in influencing or encouraging children to report on their parents' radicalization. This constitutes public discourse as it engages with societal issues, media influence, and political polarization.
