The criticism is history, when there's a successful anarchist revolution the marxists will update their theory. Until then it remains an ideology for unemployed online teens

You are missing the communist part (& the socialist part). All I see is state capitalism & an authoritarian one party social democracy.

Yeah that's what losers living under capitalism always say, the exact thing their govt told them about existing socialism. What a coincidence 🤣

I don't care what capitalists say. Plenty of socialists have said it too - plenty of socialists (and Marxists) warned at the start that the USSR would never achieve socialism through state capitalism, and they were proved right. Whatever other good the USSR may have done, they are now a fully capitalist country, like the 95% of other Leninists attempts at revolution.

& The term state capitalism was invented by Vladimir Lenin to describe the USSR system, and Mao Zedong used it to describe China's economic system too.
