    the elimination of the exploitation of the working class by the owning class

    But not the elimination of exploitation. In which case: meh.

        LOL you’re deluded. What does it mean for there to be corruption without exploitation? Corruption is a form of exploitation.

        • Corruption isn’t systematic, it’s an isolated and illegal activity, unlike extraction of surplus value in capitalism which is legal and encouraged and systematic. The extent of corruption is orders of magnitude below capitalist exploitation.

            I see.

            Well, good luck.

            • Dude, you’re deluded if you think capitalist exploitation is even close to corruption in communism. There was no Bezos and no Elon in the USSR. There were no yatchs and hookers. There were no homeless workers, or workers without access to healthcare. The inequality was extremely low compared to Capitalism, even comparing workers with your dreaded “bureaucracy”. The fact that you’d even compare the both just shows how stupidly uneducated you are in this.
