@DEERBLOOD @deprecated_ii Its a self reinforcing loop. Things get shitty, so people drop out, which makes things get shittier. We've passed the point of no return, they couldn't roll us back to the 1990s even if they wanted to (they don't because they also hate you.) There's not enough prosperity left in the system anymore to go around. Doesn't matter if they make another entertaining Star Wars if every facet of your life outside that 90 minutes is crushing misery.

@TrevorGoodchild Conservatives used to call the USSR 'A third world country with nuclear weapons.'
Visit Philadelphia to see what that looks like, because Russia has improved.

1. can't perform legitimate elections
2. all are not equal before the law
3. obvious personal corruption of power political figures goes unpunished
4. obviously illegal and scandalous political corruption goes unpunished
5. whistleblowers are destroyed
6. has political prisoners
7. restricts speech and the press
8. has a fake press, and fake interactions with the press
9. has a deep state
10. has out of control inflation
11. has collapsing infrastructure
12. has insane economic policy (sanctions)
what do you need, a golden "welcome to the third world" plaque to hang on a wall?

@deprecated_ii Calling Russia a "third world country" is the tip off.
Protip: if a country can produce hypersonic missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads it is not third world. Deal with it.
