So ... the average Russian is now going to kill Putin because his Wagner-buddy is a Neo-Nazi and so are (at least some of) his troops? I won't hold my breath, but good luck.

Does not look like credible proof. But Utkin does not have any kind of people's support, that's for sure. AFAIK the entire existence of Wagner army is questionable, as it was never admitted by officials. It might be another ukrainian myth.

What? Wagner PMC "might be another Ukrainian myth"?

So immediately after the 2014 invasion, they've started to create this giant myth that doesn't exist but is seen fighting wherever Russia fights, just not in Russian uniforms, complete with recruitment talks and all that? What's next, Russia doesn't even exist and is just a myth invented by the US military-industrial complex to justify defense spending?
