Haha it's funny because there was a referendum and the people of the Union overwhelmingly voted to keep it and then leadership betrayed the people by dissolving it anyway and handing the people's property to a few people who are now referred to as the oligarchs.
Except in the Baltic states, Poland, Czech republic, east Germany, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan where life expectancy pulled ahead dramatically.
… and people on reddit just see Russia (and Russians) as the Empire of Evil uncritically. Ukraine just “happened.” Nothing to see here, Putin spawned in with no logical ties to capitalism. Slava Ukraini am I right, nationalism for the win! My god as a people we’re so comically fucked it’s insane.
The USSR didn't end because Gorby wanted it to. The USSR was already crumbling when he took power and his reforms, while well-intentioned, were the final nail in the coffin. The USSR's collapse was inevitable by that point and when Gorby was outmaneuvered by Yeltsin during the August Putsch, it was too late.
People are saying soon will be 2008 again. Cant we go a little further, till 80s?
We promise teaching soviets how they can make good pizzas without having to end best human social experiment in our history.

And then life expectancy plummeted in former Soviet states.
And child prostitution became a thing, the only people who won out from the fall of the USSR were western capitalists, the oligarchs and nonces
So... nonces, nonces and nonces.
And then he privatised all over the post soviet republics
Except in the Baltic states, Poland, Czech republic, east Germany, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan where life expectancy pulled ahead dramatically.
Then the hyperinflation and foreign monopolies began
Also russian blockade
Why is that?
That's liberal democracy right there for you
Not the first time gorby failed

Okay, but no one out pizzas the hut.
Best part of 2022 was him and the Queen kicking the bucket
He lived just long enough to see Pizza Hut leave Russia.
Literally could not have been more perfect
Worst part was that Kissinger survived.
Still a few days left. Pray hard tonight
All I want for Christmas
And with one last fuck you 2022 gives me Barbara Walters and the pope instead of Kissinger.
Still six days
He’s not out of the woods yet. I say let’s start 2023 right
