Andropov — KGB chief turned General Secretary. Thumbs-down from Haz's tier-list (MAJOR UPDATES stream: "Oh, Yuri Andropov. You know what? I don't even like him.").
Below even caretaker Chernenko ("he was okay") and miles above Gorbachev ("really bad") — consistent with the anti-Khrushchevite reading where Andropov's personnel politics groomed the men who liquidated what they inherited.
Until he gets real discussion, this page records the placement instead of inventing analysis.
