    The problem is that places like the USSR were just authoritarian using communist wordsand concepts to keep people in line. It was just state-run capitalism. Communism is fundamentally about not having a ruling class.

    Just like the “democratic” people’s republic of Korea isn’t a democracy, the USSR wasn’t socialist.
