This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The word "communism" is clearly and explicitly stated by original commenter as an economic system ("Bridled capitalism is a better system than communism") and not ideology, as per definition you try to give.

USSR, China, Cuba, Vietnam etc. had socialism as their economic system, and that's an encyclopedic fact, not semantics.
