    Yeah, the Soviet Union, but with all the lip service to communism replaced by actual capitalism.

      Well, not really. The regime is a totalitarian dictatorship, the system is extremely corrupt with all the oligarchs. So it’s not really capitalism. Communism is replaced by nationalism. Not really nazism, as the nazies had a very social system (only national). Putin wants the old borders of the Soviet Union back, not socialism.

        Capitalism doesn’t need free market to exist. In fact, capitalism has nothing to do with free markets, only with ownership of the means of production.
