    the elimination of the exploitation of the working class by the owning class

    But not the elimination of exploitation. In which case: meh.

      There’s no surplus labour extraction, hence no exploitation

        LOL you’re deluded. What does it mean for there to be corruption without exploitation? Corruption is a form of exploitation.

          Corruption isn’t systematic, it’s an isolated and illegal activity, unlike extraction of surplus value in capitalism which is legal and encouraged and systematic. The extent of corruption is orders of magnitude below capitalist exploitation.

              Dude, you’re deluded if you think capitalist exploitation is even close to corruption in communism. There was no Bezos and no Elon in the USSR. There were no yatchs and hookers. There were no homeless workers, or workers without access to healthcare. The inequality was extremely low compared to Capitalism, even comparing workers with your dreaded “bureaucracy”. The fact that you’d even compare the both just shows how stupidly uneducated you are in this.

                stupidly

                O_o

                uneducated

                I’m not going to waste my time learning about a field that brings no solution to the table.

                in the USSR … The inequality was extremely low compared to Capitalism

                  Big quantitative differences turn into qualitative differences. But thank you for finally admitting you’re talking out of your ass
