OREANDA-NEWS Artemy Lebedev, a well-known Russian blogger and designer, said that the taxi driver dropped him off because of personal hostility and insulted him. He recalled this incident in the show "Who is your subscriber?", available on the VKontakte social network.

"I get in the car, and he looks in the mirror and says: "I'm not taking you." I'm like, "Why?" He said, "Because you're a ***," the designer said.

He added that in real life he rarely encounters negativity from strangers. On the Internet, Lebedev says, he regularly reads critical and hostile comments about himself.
