Doddering old man rarely making public appearances, deferring to underlings. His kids are weird degenerate criminals. Younger apparatchiks vying for power.

Date: September 21st, 2020 10:06 PM Author: Vigorous church 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.
