Kinda reminds me when Macron said he would end homelessness, that all those "first line jobs that society so devaluates" would be generously compensated, that he would be oh so very strict with climate efforts, etc etc
It's almost like people in power say one thing and do another
But... The soviet union did end homelessness? It did end unemployment? It doubled life expectancy? It eliminated illiteracy? It eliminated the gender wage gap? It eliminated gender workplace inequality in tech/science (still visible today)? It went from a feudal backwards society to the #2 industrial superpower in the world in just 30 years and invented space travel.
You make this comparison with capitalist leadership with a "both sides" implication and yet pay no attention to the sincere and easily provable differences, doing this just makes you an active supporter of the status quo.
