    Communism is a flavor of authoritarianism. You can’t tell me that the USSR valued freedom.

      Stalinists et co are not the totality of communist thought, despite how much as they tried to portray themselves as such.

          Mao is a Maoist, and the CCP claim to be ‘the sole heir and successor to Joseph Stalin concerning the correct interpretation of Marxism–Leninism and the ideological leader of world communism,’ and I think (hope?) we can agree that Stalinism is not communism.

          Mao only split from the Sovs because the Sovs became slightly less Stalinist under Khrushchev.

      Only in the ways it’s been implemented at the state level so far. Which, admittedly, may be the only way it can.
