>>6351544It was some kind of socialism, not communism, and even so it failed to be truly socialist when the bureaucrats seized all the power from the proletariat.
There's no government at all in communism (at least in marxist communism) it's a type of anarchy. Even Lenin thought so:
""Then the door will be thrown wide open for the transition from the first phase of communist society [Socialism] to its higher phase [Communism], and with it the complete withering away of the state.". If you want to read more about the theory behind communism you can find a good archive at marxists dot org
