But Communism/Socialism does work. It just works for only a few people. Democratic Party Socialism works great for the Squad members who can run on their sex, race or other affiliation. Communism works great for Putin in Russia and an elite in Cuba - just not for the millions of people who live there - unless you ask Putin or the Cuban elite who will tell you how great it works. Sounds a lot like asking the NSDA how their system works too - their system works great for the NSDA elite and their judges.
Russia is no longer the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Not since 1991. And really, bone up on some Russia history. One of the reasons Vlad is in power now (and one of the less discussed reasons the US baited the Bear over Ukraine) is because he chased the Western neoliberal carpetbaggers out of Russia when they offered to "help" and started looting and pillaging former state held assets after the collapse. (And he helped usher the return of the Russian Orthodox Church. Another biggie.)

Slip of the tongue? "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

so neoliberalism is bad because state agents were corrupt and inefficient at distributing resources? lol
Yeah, Vlad's a fuckin' saint, the saviour of modern day Russia.
Nice strawman. That is not what I said at all.
Well you fooled me.
I'm not sure if I'd call Russia a communist country. Putin is a dictator, as was Stalin.
You are right of course but it is still a bloody dictatorship.
