    Why do “Communist” desperatly need a lone male leader in power of an only self described communist/socialist state to see their communist utopia? Marx wrote his theories i a very specific time. Im pretty sure he didnt think of stalins reign when he wrote about the means of production.

      Try reading “Stalin – the History and Critique of a Black Legend”by Domenico Losurdo. And if you mind, please tell me what’s not socialist about e.g. China?

        That’s easy: private ownership of means of production is not socialist.

        I will even include another non socialist fact : China has billionaires (in US$). Those should not exist in a socialist country.
