I already have another guy in mind, but that could work.
To be honest this idea has sort of been done to death in almost every post-1900 TL out there. I'm not saying you're unoriginal, but that the market's a little saturated. If anything, the one time someone wrote a story where the USSR dissolves worse (Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire) it was a nice change of pace for many.
The USSR always survives, and if it's not the USSR it's the Russian Empire. There are other options.
Yes, it's kind of a re-occurring socialist wish fulfillment thing. It pops up from time to time. I'm sorry, my dude.Has a timeline been done where the Soviet Union fully automizes it's economy and implements OGAS fully?
