This thread is where all the takes from idiots (looking at you Armchair Warlord) and screenshots of twitter posts/youtube thumbnails go.

    Ok, hypothetical scenario:

    Putin’s kickin’ it at the Kremlin, looking at old maps and catalogs for table-lengthening products, the usual; let’s say it’s tomorrow a bit before lunch time. Phone rings, it’s Luka and Pringlecan prank calling him from a burner. Anyway, after establishing that his refrigerator is running, and the boys laughing and making rooster noises at him, Vladka loses his shit like he always does. But this time, that cerebral AVM he’s had since birth, it just can’t take the pressure, and - pop. He mutters some stroked out gibberish and falls out a conveniently placed open window, splat.

    What happens in Russia? Does someone take power or does it devolve into a struggle? Non-credible answers only, plz.

      Massive power struggle ending in the Franchise Wars. Massive corporations clash in a violent bid to fatten every single Russian into a Trigglypuff. Freddy’s Steakburgers wins and is bought outright by a Chinese company, which is of course a front for the CCP. No one wins but the peasants, who finally get running water and unhindered access to Starlink. Elon is chosen as Emperor of All The Russias and ushers in a golden age of prosperity, Freedom and liberty for all. He rules the Empire from his dome on Mars, because no one wants to move to that shit hole.

      An ai that has been trained on all the videos of Putin takes over as he is “sacred of in person COVID transmission and nobody except his in group” has seen him in person for years. Everyone nods at zoom meeting calls as the real controller of this “yes man ai” is Luka (a CIA agent).
