    Sure, the Soviets should have just dismantled the state, that would have totally not led to Nazis exterminating everyone between Berlin and the Urals as they claimed to desire! Dismantling socialist states is something you should totally realistically desire while there still exist capitalist and fascist empires! China should have totally dismantled its state too, surely wouldn’t have become a colonized English territory again as during the opium wars killing tens of millions! /s

        Claiming that not having a socialist state was/is the right alternative in the historical context is materially identical to advocating for the genocide of all non-German ethnicities between Berlin and the Urals and the colonization of China at the hands of Europe, Japan and the US.
