@yogthos @temochka see the work of Milovan Đilas (*The New Class),* Mervyn Matthews (*Privilege in the Soviet Union*) and many others documenting the ruling class privileges in the USSR.
And their is a continuation : 60% of elites in the Vladimir Putin regime had nomenklatura backgrounds.
@jbgi @temochka buddy, I literally grew up in USSR. I know exactly what life and privileges in USSR were like.
Trying to pretend that inequality there was in any way comparable to capitalism is the height of intellectual dishonesty.
