North Korea? The Totalitarian Hereditary Dictatorship? Thats communism?

Vietnam’s own Wikipedia:

Although Vietnam remains officially committed to socialism as its defining creed, its economic policies have grown increasingly capitalist,[234][235] with The Economist characterising its leadership as “ardently capitalist communists”.[236]

Soviet Union also turned into a Totalitarian Dictatorship pretty quickly. The key ingredient that fucks all of these up is centralization. Communism is supposed to be decentralized. The Soviet Union was extremely centralized. Also, I’m not even a communist. I dont believe in hierarchies.
