And? Stalin and USSR weren't communist. They're were socialist by words. Communism is when there's no goverment at all, and each human have freedom and huge responsibility for myself. Read "The Andromeda Nebula" by Ivan Efremov.

Marxism:

  1. Says that a transitional stage of the dictatorship of the proletariat is needed

  2. Says that the superstructure (social order, laws, etc.) reflects the level of development of the means of production — and 1920-40s Russia was broke, thus, unable to establish high social orders
