But if anyone was likely to suddenly die and leave fear and chaos in his wake like Stalin did, it is most certainly Vlad. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,967 Posted December 22, 2020 I think it makes sense if he actually has Parkinson's, i.e. he'll live on, but cannot govern through projecting his "strongman" image. Maybe he gets the shakes more often than he used to, and the regular medication is less and less able to hide it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,967 Posted April 21, 2021 Hitler said that he needed a war rather sooner than later, i.e. before he got too old to lead. Maybe Putin is having similar thoughts, as he prepares war with the Ukraine, withdraws Russia from the ISS, gets more and more shameless with espionage and grows more and more prickly. In my opinion, he's gone off the rails. Maybe he really is ill, I had suspected Parkinson's on the forum before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
