Communism is just moral camouflage for power. Its a narrative only. Its basically the same as "democracy!" in the west - maybe there's real democracy, maybe not, but the purpose of the narrative is to excuse power for being power. Communism is just power. It hides behind a beautiful story that gets promoted, with the statues of heroic figures and the hammer and sickle - those are real, and its a trip, seeing it - it really sells the idea. Butbjn practice its just power vs powerless. They've been successful because they chose market economics.
