What do you mean ...
Golitsyn made predictions with a high rate of accuracy. Since you know his story, you should have an idea of why he was allowed to live so long. As far as on track, it definitely is, insofar as the Postwar West has no conception of the organized Marxist conspiracy to destroy it. As we know, the prevailing narrative is that Communism was defeated and the world has moved on, such as described by Fukuyama and his End of History and the Last Man.
As far as opinions, we all have them. Yours isn't the default. In fact, most Americans disagree with you about Russia and see it as a threat (
Pewresearch). Whether or not they agree with Biden and the Democrats is a separate issue. You should stop pretending at neutrality or as if I and others on the forum who disagree with you are uniquely at fault for pushing our ideas on the subject. You have just as strong opinions as the rest of us, and that's ok.
JR Nyquist's analysis, from memory, is that the Soviets temporarily lost control (touching on the success of the strategy) during the democratization, but Trust-like operations brought it back under control after some time. That follows into your next idea...
It is my opinion that a reversion to Sovietism would not currently be possible ...
I believe you are correct, but the model would be China and not Stalin. The Russo-Ukrainian conflict is probably meant in part to teach Americans and Russians to hate. This reflects thinking from the defector literature on the subject of Soviet revivalism. I believe FTX is strong evidence as to the actual goals of Biden and the Democrats, which do not include Ukraine's long-term survival.
I personally hold that the West and Communism were controlled by different groups / factions among "The Controllers", and may have been an experiment to determine which systems enables better and more complete control of the population ...
People tend to forget that the US and USSR were allies until 1945. Someone else posted recently about how all of these entities came together after the war to build the UN and other globalist initiatives in order to bring about global governance. Part of the point of the Perestroika Deception was to work out the differences between East and West in order to bring about Convergence (using Western/Cultural Marxism and other subversions) into the final global governance system. We disagree about the details, but the overall trajectory is the same: global governance.
Kudos for addressing ideas.
