The UdSSR is the successor of Imperial Russia, which was a monarchy. That means the UdSSR was right extremist and a monarchy

Which ignores how Putin has made repeated references to the borders of the Russian Empire as justification. Take Putin’s essay, On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians, for example. He mentions the Russian Empire more than the USSR and talks of the "Ukrainization in the Ukrainian SSR " during the “1920’s-1930’s” and how “Ukrainization was often imposed on those who did not see themselves as Ukrainians”. He couldn’t make a claim to Ukraine based on the UdSSR if Ukraine was developed as a separate entity during the UdSSR’s existence. Russia today is more comparable to Imperial Russia than to the UdSSR. Even then, the justification lies more in the existence of ethnic Russians in Ukraine, rather than historical claims.

The CPC, unfortunately, does not cling to Mao. Celebrations of his birthday have been largely scaled back, there are no large pictures of Mao at their congresses or on most of their propaganda, and he is rarely brought up in newspapers. Mao’s little red book is largely seen as nostalgia. The CPC is big on “Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era” instead of “Mao Zedong Thought”.

Do you even know what you are talking about?

The USSR was a state controlled by the workers, while the Russian Federation is a state controlled by the russian capitalists.

Putin distorts the history of the USSR every time he speaks about it. He wants russians to think that Russia was “a glorious empire that almost beat the West”, not a country led by the working class that gave hope to billions of people worldwide.

You do not know what fascism is. You do not know what communism is. Go read a book before you argue online, it is good for you.

I know that you did not read anything because of your mention of Tiananmen Square. You did not do any investigation on the subject nor did you read someone else’s investigation into the subject. You just took the propaganda as truth and ran with it.

If you want to actually learn about communism, fascism, the USSR, China, Tiananmen Square, etc. you can just use the search function of lemmygrad. You’ll find many resources to learn.

(or you can just continue helping the fascists by regurgitating propaganda, do whatever you want, I won’t force you)
