    Socialism, as much as I want it to be, is not a switch to be turned on. It is a world historical process which brings with it contradictions to be addressed.

    See the thing is, for a while, they didn't need to have some sort of gradual transition to socialism because they actually achieved it under Mao. Under Deng and his successors they moved away from it. So I just won't buy the arguments that it's a gradual process because Russia didn't need to go through all that shit when it had its revolution, and China already did achieve socialism before Deng reversed history.
