To those who don't believe that what was designed as political protest (prayer against putin) was reinterpreted by russian state and church authorities as a punishable blasphemy (which, surprisingly, went completely unnoticed even by my friends who are mostly smarter than me), here are some fresh news: there is a parliamentary commitee (consisting mostly of ``opposition'' (libertarians, communists)) for adding blasphemy (``causing hurt to religious feelings'') into the criminal codex. This movement has broad support from all parties.
All of this is so evil and absurd that I wouldn't be surprised if the russian ``opposition'' names putin their leader. If life imitates art, russia imitates black dystopian comedy.
I am sure Satan is giving standing applause to president putin and patriarch cyrill today.
