Such information was disseminated in social networks, in particular, on telegram channels broadcasting pro-Kremlin rhetoric. Reports say that the humor magazine recently published a cover featuring the Simpsons family who were left without a sofa because it “went to the needs of Ukraine”. It is not true.

Fact-checkers of the VoxCheck project investigated this case and found that such a cover does not exist. The fact checkers explained that the fake cover indicated that this was an issue for May 2023. However, neither on the website of the publication, nor on the official pages in social networks there is a photo with such a cover.

Thus propagandists seek to show that their rhetoric is also being repeated in the West. So readers may get the impression that the whole world is opposed to Ukraine.
