They’re both auth dictator scumbags who steal from and oppress the people. Dictators are dictators. Left or right, the only difference is exactly who they want to kill. The Soviets oppressed and occupied Eastern Europe and Putin wants nothing more than to do the same.
Thankfully, Putin is less capable than Stalin, so Russian fascist rule isn’t as terrible as Soviet communist rule.
The plenty of the Communist bourgeois and the deprivation of the common people certainly were. The Party members could drive Mercedes if they wanted while the regular people could only dream about a Lada, could enjoy fancy French wines while the common people wait in bread lines, and meet over cigars while the common people were deprived even of the benefit of union representation, as all unions were turned into agents of the state.
So are you saying Putin is a not shitty dictator? He’s definitely not a communist and he’s still in charge of Russia.
Nah he’s a fascist. Same corruption as communism, different flavor.
Read this and watch this, you can lead a horse to water or whatever

So all those price controls under the soviet Union were just them oppressing their citizens?

Yeah real repression of the poor here. This is exactly what you expect to see when the poor is repressed.
Yes. Fascism is also bad. I know, it’s amazing. Why don’t you compare the average income of the Soviet working class and the American one, eh?
So now that you’ve seen data you just want to change the subject lol
I can show you that data if you want but you’re just going to ignore that too aren’t you?
