After Russia reverts to centrally planned and state driven economy, all of a sudden economic growth in Russia is beating the west.

During the first world war imperialist countries used a centrally planned economy, while still remaining bourgeois dictatorships.

This is not a dunk on capitalism, only yet another proof that "free market" is objectively utter bullshit because even capitalists know

Military spending is still a small part of overall GDP in Russia, so the claim that Russian economy is recovering due to cranking up of their military budget doesn't make sense. A far more sound explanation is that decoupling from the west created economic niches that are now being filled domestically. And I think it is fair to say that Russian economy has been reorganized in the past two years with state owned enterprise such as Rostec taking a much more prominent role.

Probably in no means comparable to that of the Soviet Union, but the damage done to the oligarchs' wealth and influence (who no one liked anyways for obvious reasons, who had been a serious hurdle for the Russian state to deal with, and who had ironically been pretty pro-western or west-compromised) is something incredibly positive to consider- as is the exodus of western corporations, leaving their assets to be bought up on the cheap and their roles to be filled by local or Chinese brands, and the newfound push back to self-sufficiency in many fields.

Any one of these three aspects alone would be more than enough to call it a serious reorganizing (though not one remotely as drastic as returning to communism, sadly), economically, and politically.

Russia is probably not returning to communism anytime soon, but it's headed in incredibly decent places if you ask me (other than the issues of conservative politics, but they're not headed into fascism either unlike much of the west, and they remain non-imperialist). And if you ask me- it's not the best case scenario, sure, but it's an exceedingly good thing for Russia and the wider world.
