There was semblance of socialism yes. But it wasn’t a socialist government. Also is it really socialist if there are levels of people who get different levels of care, pay, and living conditions?
Because communism counts on the assumption that humans aren’t greedy fucks who are gonna abuse the system anyway they can. A place where everyone is equal? Even the ruling class? Literally impossible
because you cant have communism while capitalist empires flail about. communism/anarchism pressuposes a system with no leaders or ruling class. this includes the global stage.
humans look greedy as fuck because most of us live in late stage capitalism. humans are actually unique in our unprecedented ability for empathy and cooperation.

What does this mean? Can you offer any explanation beyond “because I said so?”
Yes, absolutely. What gave you the idea that Socialism is when everyone gets paid the same? Marx directly argued against that, along with Lenin.
