Where did we go wrong?

The bad guys won the Cold War.

I suspect the failure of viable alternatives to capitalism in the 90s resulted in the runaway scenario we see today. That doesn't make the Soviet union good though.

What would happen if capital succeeded in smashing the Republic of Soviets? There would set in an era of the blackest reaction in all the capitalist and colonial countries, the working class and the oppressed peoples would be seized by the throat, the positions of international communism would be lost.

Damn, really feels like we’ve been seized by the throat
