they were the first I tried, but as a newer player (I've played EU4 but not HOI) I was sort of intimidated by the size and that they're pretty much guaranteed to get pulled into wars, whereas Mexico is less overwhelming to control and I could more easily stay out of major conflicts until I felt ready, plus Mexico's focus tree is more interesting
I was actually planning to do the Mexican Trotsky route, and even though I got an event confirming that he was in Mexico, I didn't get the option to invite him to my government for some reason. I didn't take any of the Comintern focuses that are exclusive to the Trot focuses, but maybe it was because I rehabilitated Calles? which wrong but I just couldn't pass up that sweet factory construction bonus
you gotta play as Soviet Union comrade
