      I never said they were. That’s socialism not communism. And when I think of socialism, I think exactly of Scandinavian countries, not Soviet-era Russia.

        The USSR was socialist, governed by a communist party. The Nordic model is capitalist, as it is dominated by private ownership of large firms and key industries, and relies on imperialism to function. I suggest you do more research on these subjects.

        Socialism is when white union workers at Swedish arms factories eat cheap treats farmed by impoverished black farmers kept in line with western arms.

        Cocoa farmers in Ghana have never even tasted chocolate.
