None of this happened to any former Soviet Union state.
You are either ignorant or a fucking liar.
None of what happened? The whole Soviet empire broke up? All the satellite states became independent and ditched the entire socio-economic system, some after uprisings? All experienced deep and lasting severe hardship in the process when Western vultures swooped in?
Please, when Rome fell, the city had only 50,000 people in it down from a million at the Empire's height and the base of power had already moved to the East. Your mind is warped by movies that you think every sea change happens like the end of Vendetta or LoTR.
Yes the USSR broke up but no societal collapse happened.
What do you actually think that Societal Collapse even means?
See how you keep whipsawing back and forth between moving the goalposts then asking for greater and greater specificity? It's tedious.
The Soviet Union collapsed, that's what I said, then you moved the goalposts to total societal collapse. When I specify based on your strawmanning that the remnants of the empire were looted by western powers while it underwent severe economic hardship and their way of life was radically altered....you pushed the term societal collapse.
When I remind you that societal collapse, such as the end of the Roman Empire in the west wasn't like some Hollywood movie, then you try to redefine the terms.
How is it moving the goalposts when it's literally the topic of the fucking thread and what you yourself claimed happened with the Soviet Union?
Are you paying any fucking attention, retard?
