    In Germany the left leaning parties want that shit. It sucks. They side with Russia atm as well and a lot of them just have this odd nostalgia for the time

        Yes, I know. I’m not a fan of that myself.

        But the idea that current day Russia has it better is insane. The Propaganda has survived through 30 years of non existence

          There is a difference between Russia, communism and an authoritarian/totalitarian regime.

          Communism is not necessarily authoritarian or totalitarian.

              Marxism-Leninism does, and invariably so. It’s not however the only existing current of communism.

                  Every single one that isn’t more interested in installing a new bourgeoisie (so themselves) than giving power to the people. And most ironically, Marxism, since old beardo’s ideas have been practically more perverted by his own partisans than by his opposition…

                    Okay, what’s one of them, though? Can you point to a country that currently has this going on? I’m not trying to do a gotcha here, I’m genuinely curious.

                    Which is what you describe, is once again based on Marxism-Leninism (some would want to shove a little dong after another hyphen, but it still remains the same shit regardless), and can go rot in hell.
