This was about settler-colonial states in particular. Not to say I wouldn’t love to see the Bourgeois Russian state go through another 7-11-1917.

Yes, I want communism to return to Russia, no sarcasm here whatsoever

Well, I was only half joking...

I speak from experience, I live in an ex socialist country. Things were a lot better back then, poverty was almost non-existent... but people tend to look at the bad things of a socialist/communist society because... well, most are westerners here and they've been taught that way - communism bad, capitalism good 🤷. Sure, there were skeletons in the closet, but so do capitalist countries, so I don't actually approve of that argument.
