I was reading about Brezhnev and came across this Guardian article from March 6th comparing Biden to Brezhnev and it's pretty interesting (www.theguardian.com)

It still has to do the obligatory "of course the USSR's politics were totalitarian and evil and the US's politics are open and free" bullshit, but kudos to this guy for calling Biden the leader of a nation in rapid decline on March 6th.

Think of this comparison, in true eastern European style, as a “serious joke”. First, excuse the silly part: there are leagues of difference between the intrigues of a totalitarian party state and the Democratic primaries.

Totalitarian party state? Are they talking about the US?

There were obviously no free and fair elections in the USSR.

Oh. :LIB:
