From the manifesto:
"The liberation of the Russian Federation from the colonial dependence of the United States by restoring Sovereignty through a referendum on changing the constitution."
WTF? The colonial dependence of Russia.. from the United States??! I thought it were british, french, german and russian people who founded the United States. And then liberated the latter from english dominance. lmao
So in short, Putin has paid a few people to demonstrate, so that russian patriots grant him more power in the next elections. MaRGA! (Make Russia great again (tm))

From my understanding they are a marginal, horizontal, grass roots movement of urban crazies. Interestingly enough they do not appear to be racially, etc biggoted, unlike the bulk of other hard right organisations.
The whole "colony" aspect is about how they perceive that decisions by Russian Goverment (in the broad sense, ie they think that ruble emission is some sort of conspiracy0 are dictated by western powers (ie USA) and in interest of western powers (ie USA), with the dependence being formally/institutionally cemented in documents like the constitution.
p.s. the danger here is to attribute everything happening in Russia (and globally) to some nefarious plan of Putin, because you are not just demonising the man, you are generating a perverse cult of personality.
