Russian Z-blogger Yegor Kholmogorov believes that Russian authorities are under a demonic assault and are possessed.

This is the only explanation he was able to find for their "irrational behavior", which, he says, "can no longer be described in rational terms."

"All this frenzy of bans, aggression, the complete lack of any sense of proportion or feedback loops.

What we are dealing with is a large-scale demonic assault on the minds of politicians who hold conservative and, to some extent, Christian views.

Demons are quite literally besieging them and pushing them toward absurd actions and mistakes.

In other words, we are witnessing a state of possession - something that even a saint cannot always withstand, let alone Trump or our officials."
