| Feb 18, 2021 at 22:40 | comment | added | Evan Rosica | @Jan This reminds me of the joke Reagan used to tell, "Two Russians are walking down the street, and one says, ''Comrade, have we reached the highest state of Communism?'' ''Oh, no,'' the other replies. ''I think things are going to get a lot worse." | |

| Feb 16, 2021 at 22:26 | comment | added | grovkin | "communist" and capital-C "Communist" are different words. Their meanings are almost entirely unrelated. Did you mean to ask about lower-case-c or did you mean "Communist"? | |

| Feb 16, 2021 at 14:50 | comment | added | Moishe Kohan | The Communist Party of the USSR was not "foreign". One of the reasons to use the "communist" adjective in party names was to differentiate from "non-communist" Social-Democratic parties which frequently were called "socialist" (e.g. in France, Italy, Spain). There were some exceptions such as the ruling party in DDR, Sozialistische Einheitspartei Deutschlands. But, under (effectively) one-party rule, there was no need for differentiation. | |

| Feb 16, 2021 at 12:45 | comment | added | Filippof | That could be a good point, but is it sufficient to justify that only the (foreign?) parties should be christianized as “communist”? Couldn’t they retain a “provisional” socialist qualification as well? | |
| Feb 16, 2021 at 12:35 | comment | added | Jan | Communism (classless society, worker's paradise etc) was the distant goal and socialism a stage on the way to that goal. Officially, the Soviet Union and its satellites all were still in the socialism stage of the Marxist(-Leninist?) development model. | |
