Date: September 21st, 2020 9:58 PM Author: Vivacious Business Firm Reading Party Undistinguished system guy elevated decades past his prime cause no one else is available. Doddering old man rarely making public appearances, deferring to underlings. His kids are weird degenerate criminals. Younger apparatchiks vying for power. Dissidents sent to gulags but the system is rotten enough they escape occasionally. Irrational foreign war to flex nuts. Total collapse ~10 years away.

Date: September 21st, 2020 10:06 PM Author: filthy pisswyrm There are no clear parallels between the US now and the USSR then. It's an interesting analysis but your frame for the US should probably be more the long-lived Byzantine Empire than the short-lived USSR.
