When the US loses India for good, and Khan or someone similar governs in Pakistan, we might see a kind of inverse Soviet revolution – this time from Asia towards Moscow.

Central Asia would have a rather safe option of partnering with China, leading the people to clamour for a return of Soviet power. If they get only halfway there, Russian communists might find they have the material support from their neighbours to do what they can’t currently do while Russia is relatively isolated in its struggle against US imperialism.

That would make for a lot of bold Latin Americans and Africans. All they’d have to do at that point is refuse to ship their produce to the west and it’s games over.

Lots of qualitative changes and then 🎇 a great, sweeping quantitative change. Unfortunately, the US will almost certainly use Taiwan to unsettle China by that point. This won’t be a peaceful transition.
