Well the East has had a history of putting up walls so their smart people don’t flee to the West. When the USSR fell the smart people finally found a chance to run away and now Russia is just a shell of itself.
Even Putin begs people to move back to Russia from overseas and they all just laugh at him.
USSR was actually better off than USA till 1975 but petrodollar changed the tide in favour of USA.
USSR had smart people and even now Russia has smart people. It is not by magic that Russia is developing Su57 or S400 and other advanced weapons.
Russian jews went to Israel & USA but many other stayed loyal. The main problem of USSR split was that the industrial base of Eastern Europe which was part of logistical chain of USSR industry broke off. This cause Russian industry to come to a standstill. For example, Ukraine had industry to make civil airplanes and when Ukraine split, Russia was left with no industry to make civil airlines. This industrial infrastructure being split was the main problem.
At least USSR was in a way better shape than China in the 1980s in everything, they just took the wrong path.
USSR was in a better shape than even USA in 1970. But after the petrodollar, the muslims of Central Asia started rebelling under guidance from Arabs with CIA support. This was combined with Arabs pumping more oil to deplete foreign exchange of USSR and hence reduce its purchasing power to import consumer goods.
USSR considered the option of suppressing ethnic rebellion as dangerous as the ethnic Russian population was just 50% and were concentrated only part of USSR. Large part of USSR had non Russian population. In addition to muslims & catholics, USSR also faced lot of anger among Slavs of east Europe due to dominance of Russians. This reduced USSR support base to about 50-60% of its total population and about 75-80% of land was having USSR supporters, mostly Russian and part of friendly Slavic population. Vast territories in central Asia and many in east Europe started getting tense due to huge presence of muslims, catholics, Germans and even some hostile slavic countries like Poland. USSR army was stretched by fighting Afghanistan and the vast geography of the restive regions and hostile local population made it very hard for USSR to control them. Rebellion of countries like Hungary, East Germany, Poland and even central Asian ones meant that vast land across these borders were cut off and hence supplying weapons for its troops became difficult for USSR. That was the beginning of USSR downfall.
China had homogenous population with about 10% minority. Most importantly, China did not have any major region where minority was in heavy majority. Even areas of Tibet and Xinjiang had significant HAN population to help China stabilise these regions. This meant that China could keep a good control over itself than USSR. It is not just about the path USSR chose which made them collapse but it was about ethnicity clash.
USSR was failing badly in the 1980s. The communist leaders were seeing it. Gorbachev had no choice but to make drastic changes. You can argue about the exact course of action.
Leaving Eastern Europe was an absolute must to ending the Cold War.
USSR was failing due to petrodollar and ethnic rebellion, especially ones incited by Arabs and Roman church. The wounds of Russian domination and wars imposed by USSR on countries like Poland and conquered countries like Hungary, Germany etc made them rebellious. This lead to USSR collapse, not western superiority.
Facts say otherwise. Not only are indians the most hideously ugly and physically repulsive race on planet earth, they also have a low IQ and are not intelligent or innovative at all
There is a difference between knowledge and wisdom. Wisdom is raw intellectual prowess. IQ tests knowledge. With larg number of illiterates, India will have lower IQ. But that still does not mean that Indians are less wise. Checking skills like english language, puzzle solving which requires understanding of mathematical and scientific concepts is not real test. It skews the results in favour of countries with better literacy.
The above explains why 1.4 billion indians have NEVER EVER been able to invent ANY modern sciences or technologies like the White and Far Eastern races have.
You mean the same Europeans who believed in flat earth 500 years back suddenly became supreme? Indians did invest many things like Einstein Bose condensate, Raman effect etc. Considering that western countries had better political management for last few centuries and better infrastructure, it is an achievement in itself for India to have developed technology to current levels. For that matter, even China has no significant inventions to its name. But this is only because of time lag between technology development rather than any inherent problem.
On top of being supremely ugly and having low intelligence, indian men also have the smallest weiners out of all the other races of men.........
Who measures weiners of people? Some fake surveys which gave arbitrary numbers are not authentic and only fools use them as benchmark.
There is a positive correlation with beauty and intelligence but i do not know how positive.
Generally it is negative correlation.
