    Hmm, are we coming to the place where “socialism” is “communism lite?” I’m really tired and probably shouldn’t be posting right now, but we’ll see.

      In Marxist terminology, socialism is a transitional stage where existing capitalist relations persist, but the working class holds power in society. So, if Russia can get to a place where there is a communist party firmly in charge the way there is in China, then it would enter socialist stage of development.
