    USSR was barely communist. They were closer to fascist than communist.

    Releasing the grip slightly to appeal more to the global market was strategic to adapt to the times.

      It’d be cool if the anarchads and demsocs of yesteryear had coined a catchy term to describe the Soviets who were genociding them and making deals with Hitler.

      Oh wait, they did.

      Red Fascists.

        Yeah exactly lol USSR was not a communist nation. Soviets aren’t communist, Maoism is closer to Marxism.

        People look at the name of the country and assume it all changed. USSR -> Russia was just a rebrand and trimming the fat of the less than useful “members” of the “alliance”
