Cool. Critical thinking to you means coming to the same conclusions you have. Sounds very convenient.

Well to be fair the USSR was communist and did exhibit many features of communism. They just weren't very successful. For example it was communist under Lenin when he implemented war communism from 1918-1921 and his NEP while containing some slight market compromises was socialist. Furthermore, collectivisation under Stalin was a policy stubbornly rooted in communist ideology despite leading to the deaths of millions of Ukrainians.
