Russian Fog is a term used to describe a socio-psychological state where manic and sociophobic aggression is directed at creating chaos and disorder to achieve highly selfish aims. Individuals or groups in this state display destructive behavior, disregarding the consequences for those around them and society at large. The primary goal of the "Russian Fog" is to sow confusion and fear, compelling people to doubt their perspectives and distorting or undermining reality.

People affected by this "fog" often react irrationally, become susceptible to manipulation, and tend to support the source of the chaos, even if it harms them. This behavior is often explained by a subconscious drive to align with a perceived force, even at personal risk. The concept of "Russian Fog" is frequently associated with modern information warfare and propaganda tactics, which seek to destabilize and weaken societies from within.
