Mikhail Gorbachev passes away

[SecularNationalist]

He was a great leader indeed. Rip.
What a pity he had to witness the betrayal of the West in old age.

oh noes! it's so easy for a radio active isotope to 'accidentally' fall into your porridge, poor Gorby.

I am partially sympathetic to Gorbachev in the sense that he was caught between the proverbial Rock and a Hard Place. In my opinion, both Rock and Hard Place were economics, not military.

Gorbachev, in 'A Time For Peace' and speaking with the Brits, said:

The achievements of the Soviet Union in fundamental and applied sciences have won recognition around the world. Today the USSR is capable of independently tackling the most complex scientific and technological tasks.​

No one disputes that. We know the flow is: Theoretical => Applied => Economics.

Most Second World countries are fully capable of the first two, but the last is purely political, as in the freedom and will to make that scientific success into an economic contributor, then let the market decide if that contributor live or die. Am Air Force and I read plenty of theoretical aeronautics from the SU and definitely we learned much from the Soviets on that front. But consistently, internal ideological paranoia outweighs economic decision making and one scientific achievement after another languished on the shelves. I read this quasi-memoir several times over the decades. The SU had nowhere else to go and Gorbachev understood that and in 'A Time For Peace' he tried to make a good face for the SU but I believe that when Gorbachev came into prominence, the SU was just one theoretical meter away from an economic precipice, and Gorbachev knew it. I do not believe Gorbachev was 'The One' who pushed/pulled the SU over that precipice. If the economy is an automobile, the SU version had a locked steering column and Gorbachev just happened to be in front of the cabin.

A well meaning man, but a weak leader.

R.I.P Gorby, lets hope he didn't accidentally fall out of a hospital window.

Actually, a certain substance 'accidentally' fell into his meal.

Oh dear! another influential Russian, the Chairman of Lukeoil no less "accidentally" falls out of a hospital window today.

y'all be careful when you visit a hospital.

Why not just be blatant about it? Does the FSB not understand that by now, these 'accidents' are pointless?

Gorby's passing signals the beginning of the Second Cold War. This time between China and its vassals versus America and its vassals.

Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev Aged 91 Years died on Tuesday, 30th August 2022 had waged a Losing Battle to Salvage a Crumbling Empire but Produced Extraordinary Reforms that led to the End of League of Nations - Status Quo War, died on Tuesday, 30th August 2022.

Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation - President Administrative Directorate - Maskava - District Kuntsevo - Street Timoshenko - 15 Marshal Clinical Hospital - Statement said that Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev Died after a Long illness. No Other Details were Given.

Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Kremlyovka Kuntsevo Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said in a Statement Carried by Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation - News Media Agency that Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation - President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin offered Deep Condolences over Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev - Death and would send Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation - Official Telegram to Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev - Family in the Morning.

Though in Power less than Seven Years, Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev unleashed a Breathtaking Series of Changes. But Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation Quickly Overtook Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev and Resulted in the Collapse of the Authoritarian Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga, the freeing of Slavonic Tsar Petrograd Bloc Countries from Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation Domination and the End of Decades of East West Confrontation.

Decline was Humiliating. Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation Power Hopelessly Sapped by an Attempted Coup against Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev in August 1991; Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev spent Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation - Leader Last Months in Office Watching Slavonic Republic after Slavonic Republic Declare Independence until Dushanbe Collective Security Treaty Organisation - Member Countries Federation - Leader resigned on 25th December 1991. Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga wrote self into oblivion a day later.

A Quarter Century after the Collapse, Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev told that Slavonic Tsar Petrograd had not considered using widespread force to try to keep Soyuz Sovetskikh Respublik together because Slavonic Tsar Petrograd feared chaos in Slavonic Tsar Petrograd Bloc Countries.

Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev said that “Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga was loaded to the brim with Weapons. And this would have immediately pushed Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga into Open Invasion War.”

Many of the changes, including Soyuz Sovetskikh Respublik breakup, bore no resemblance to the transformation that Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev had envisioned when Konstantin Ustinovich Chernenko became Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader in March 1985.

By the end of Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Konstantin Ustinovich Chernenko Rule and was powerless to halt the whirlwind he had sown. Yet Slavonic Sovetska Sąjunga - Leader Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev may have had a greater impact on the second half of the 20th century than any other political figure.
