There sure would be a race of coffins like in late soviet times, but every day it lasts a lot of ukrainians, belarussians, russians suffer for nothing. And these elderly goblins seem like they would live another decade in spite of all reason.

@andrew_bidlaw People in the US also have a low life expectancy and it's falling. In the US it's 76 years for whites, and 73 for blacks.
20 years from now the political scene will be different because of that generation dying out. They're still stuck in 1950's family values and thinking.

What does the USA has to do with it? It smells whataboutism...

@andrew_bidlaw
Men's average life expectancy in Russia is 69 years and Putin is 71. He'll probably be around for another ten years. He won't be deposed or replaced. He'll die of natural causes, and maybe have his own mausoleum, like Lenin. He'll be revered as a Hero of Russia. He's fit and active and gets the best medical care, so he's got years left in him. I'm sure that Biden will make it to 80 as he's very frail.

Biden is 81 now. I'm sure Putin won't last this long. Every one of his friends suffered from this campaign, so I think he'd be backstabbed.

@andrew_bidlaw wow. I didn't know he was that old. I doubt that he's got much time left.

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep. And that's one of the stones to throw at dems - they should've nurtured some new faces in these 4 years to replace Biden. I guess the next election would have the maximal sum of ages of primary candidates in the race. I don't think Biden wouldn't be able to last another four years, but he's twice\trice the age of his average voters and he hardly gets them at all. Hard to imagine why first time voters would vote for him if not against Trump, even though his term was pretty okay.
