Provincial Russians gave me my first chuckle of the day when I read that residents of Bogolyubovo refuse to use new passports because the barcodes may contain satanic symbols. Bogolyubovoians have also stopped collecting pensions because the checks may also contain the mark of the beast.
It’s comforting that the superstitious villagers won’t be able to spread their insanity since they will apparently be too poor to travel, and won’t have valid passports anyways.
