But what did the Shawshank Savior actually doto deserve this?

It all started with director Rob Reiner and Atlanticeditor David Frum who are promoting the Committee to Investigate Russia, a "nonprofit, non-partisan resource" intended to, well, educate Americans about the seriousness of Russia's attacks on American democracy.

As part of this campaign, the group enlisted frequent portrayer of God/God-like figures Morgan Freeman to do a video highlighting all of the shenanigans Russians are accused of partaking in related to the U.S. presidential election of 2016.

So, naturally, the Russians are mad online like so many MAGA hat burners, and they're turning to social media to take aim at Freeman (who clearly has a lot of influence in Russia if they're getting this mad about it).

And it's not just botstotally real, human people on Twitter that are mad. Per the Washington Post, Russian officials are also denouncing the video as propaganda.

In response to Freeman's video, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, "many performing artists easily succumb to becoming victims of emotional strain with no real information about the real state of things."

And a Russian TV channel accused Freeman of falling prey to “a Messianic complex resulting from playing God or the president in several films, not to mention ‘drug abuse.’”

As for Freeman, he hasn't commented on the Russian backlash but one assumes he's too busy chilling in Zihuatanejo to really care about it.
