They may have had the potential to be a superpower, but it’s apparent that they never had the leadership to conduct as one. Those inside the Kremlin bought into their own bullshit and thought of themselves as a superpower, not realising the machine within is operating on unlubricated, old, broken, and missing parts.
This seems to be a common theme with countries that feed a superiority narrative to their people and other nations.
It seems to me that people keep begging on Ukraine. How about Russia was all of that and a bag of chips but Ukraine was developed for decades of Soviet rule to be a troop sponge where wave after wave of nato troops die and die and die keeping Russia safe.
Ukraine was made to be a rock on which superior armies dash themselves on until they break apart.
After seeing how NATO advised the Ukrainian counter attack to go I’m certain Russia would be in Poland by now if NATO was on the ground.
Oh, they were a superpower as the USSR. Propping up friendly governments, supplying coups, ratfucking around where more blatant impositions wouldn’t be tolerated. It was just built on a house of cards and when it imploded it imploded big.

NATO losing to Russia in a direct conflict? Truly non credible, my brain worm friend.

Like when Ukraine was an SSR?
Ukraine was a powerhouse of the USSR, wasn’t it? I think that’s why they got so much nuke power, they produced so much food
