@mira if you think the Soviet Union was a horrible State capitalist authoritarian atrocity then you must not actually be a leftist because that's the most successful example of leftist governance we've ever seen!
What's my definition of successful? When there's a high literacy rate and a high rate of factory production and a large amount of area conquered!
Huh? That's "hitler made the trains run on time" level logic?
But the USSR was communist!
