It would be nice to think that it all applies to the PTB and it is the whole corrupt system that "dropped dead" in April.
Perhaps this is so, the downfall of lies in the world, they just can't sustain themselves to objective reason and light. Perhaps also, as was said, Putin's hand forced the PTB to make their absurdities become seen to a great deal more and they are "dropping" any lasting relationship to their promoted illusions. As such, the illusions are dying a slow death - time will tell.
