@fnadde42 The standard critique of Bolshevik Russia is that it was state capitalist. I believe Lenin described the goal of the project as such, or maybe it was Stalin, I forget. I also believe we should not call it the Soviet Union, considering they didn't give a crap about the soviets after 1919 or so..

No to go all interjection.txt, but communism is not an ideology unto itself, but rather the end state sought by much of the left.
