If the Soviet Union had a different leader than Gorbachev that would have continued it, then it would have been smooth sailing after 2008. The US or the EU/UK would have collapsed back then already, like it’s doing now.
The Soviet Union had always been the weaker nation during the 20th century due to not having the best fossil fuel of the 20th century, coal.
So it needed to spend a lot of money on it’s military and media to keep things together.
Gorbachev didn’t do that and as a consequence the Soviet Union fell apart.
These days the best fossil fuel is natural gas.
Guess who has the most of it?
I keep getting Infographics, Wendover productions, TLDR News Global and others.
Same thing. “China is collapsing” “China has collapsed” “X is happening and will cause China’s total collapse this week” “What happens once Russia’s invasion of Ukraine ends? Putin at international court.”
I just wonder how these people think they will continue once they lose their credibility.
