Oof... mentioning Stalin and Khrushchev of all people in the same breath in this context is borderline disqualifying.

Aside from that, the "Soviet brand of communism" wasn't limited to the Soviet heartland but was also implemented throughout the Eastern Block, and with even a wider gamut of outcomes -- widening it toward the positive end of the spectrum, with few exceptions. And strictly speaking, even ChiCom-ism is an offshoot of the "Soviet brand of communism."

also consider some similarities between fascists and communists

Of course. They're both on the same end of the vertical axis for a reason.

As for the "Soviet brand of communism"... that's a pretty wide gamut, especially when it comes to improving the living standards of the 99%. Your generalization does not exactly instill me with confidence in your historiographic prowess on the matter.

No switching tho. Voting record of more than two decades voting socialist, consistently. 🕶

No worries though: you're gonna be hang--I mean you're gonna get the hang of it, eventually.

We often walk by sight and not by faith. God can only work in the hands and feet of people as can Satan. And the majoriy of people are not working for Satan or working for God, they are just paralyzed in the middle, working for naturalism a prison in their own body to the chemical reactions of life by Jesus in conspiracy

Disagree.

"Naturalism," i.e., material existence is the glimpse of freedom, the literal breath of fresh air.

Spiritualism, i.e., the deprivation of material existence is the prison.

The rejection of the breath is the frustrated tantrum of an insatiable child.
