Greatest comeback in history. It'd reshape world geopolitics forever.

It would be the defining moment of the 21st century, besides the fall of the USA inshallah

[–] Grimble@hexbear.net 18 points 11 months ago

Suddenly the fall of the USA would be remembered by historians as the leadup to this event. Or vice versa.

I feel like they'd still be weaker than China but stronger than the EU.

"In a strange turn of events, the US is funds Russian opposition parties against Putin. Putin is removed from power, but the main opposition party is the KPRF, the others are too weak and deorganized to oppose them. Gennady Zyuganov becomes head of state and allies Russia with China."

It will never happen, because the KPRF is mostly pro-Putin nowadays. sicko-wistful

Zyuganov had a real chance in 1996, but of course amerikkka propped up that garbage pile Yeltsin.

New leadership or an 'unexpected' purge is always on the table

[–] freagle@lemmygrad.ml 30 points 11 months ago

It's not going to happen until after the US balkanizes, at least.
