The one boycotted by 6 of the 15 territories? Or the ones that followed in each that led to them declaring independence which in turn led to the collapse of the soviet union?
The baltics were 3 of those boycotting territories and we had similar referendums for independence which, I’m pretty sure, all got over 70% support.
That’s the one, where Russians had less interest in the USSR than the participating territories.

Sure, and not the presidential coup. Get real.

And the Baltics are doing so much better now.
I’m reminded of a story of Lithuania charging holocaust survivors for fighting as partisans against the nazis in WW2. It happened in 2009. They’ve gotten more fascist since. Wonder what itd be like if the USSR was never overthrown.

The baltics are actually doing much better now yea, by pretty much every metric.
Yes, slightly improved metrics sure compensate for the systemic nazi rehabilitation /s
And for the overall lowering of living conditions across the former USSR /s
Nope, living conditions have improved massively and way less nazies here than Russia as well.
