by this logic, wait until you hear about who the nazis got their ideas from and operation paperclip there were a lot of flaws with the USSR, this being one of them, but at least communists don’t pretend it’s some paragon of morality like capitalists think

The USSR actively did pretend to be a paragon of morality. Wait until you read about the NKVD and KGB and the entire propaganda apparatus. Every modern state every has wanted to achieve its own goals AND be the hero in their own story

I don't know of any capitalists who are bringing up operation paperclip as a paragon of morality either in all fairness
