As are all states. The important distinction between them isn’t the degree by which authority is used, which is largely decided by the conditions a state is in rather than the form of the state itself, but instead is which class controls the state. The USSR was run by the working classes, the US by capitalists.
The communist party consisted of workers. Working class is not a level of income, but a relation to ownership of the means of production and distribution. Further, the USSR saw incredibly high rates of democratic participation, both having some of the highest voting percentages and the actual highest rates of measures to vote on.
Wealth inequality in the USSR existed, but was nowhere even fathomably close to wealth inequality in modern Russia, let alone the US Empire.
I don’t really get what you’re trying to do. Capitalists and slavers aren’t an ethnicity, nor were they murdered en masse by the USSR. The USSR wasn’t genocidal.
Also not sure why you are going into a socialist community and calling socialists “fascists,” this is nonsense word salad on top of your strange and baseless jab.
What hypocrisy? Your jab didn’t even leave anything to address, I had to try to fill in that gap myself. What’s your point? That socialism is secretly fascism?

The working class in the usa empire mostly lives in the colonies. Labor aristocrats always “conveniently forget” about their overseas plundering.
