@GreenandBlack@sunbeam.city hot take: there is no difference between a private company and an authoritarian socialist state: in both cases you have no democracy, an overblown bureaucracy, you don't own your means of production, you do stuff that makes no sense to please the upper management and you are paid peanuts for your time. Oh, and everything can be taken from you at the whim of your boss.

USSR 

@Antanicus
I read a really good essay showing how the USSR was actually a capitalist state, but I can't find it now. They drew a lot of parallels between the corporate structure and Russia under Stalin. I've found other mentions of state capitalism on the web, but this essay is eluding me. It was 1000x more eloquent than any of the other arguments I've seen.
