Ok, communism is a political and economic system without government, stateless. Socialism is social and economic system with government, I mixed government in between because I dumb but USSR was a socialist state.
The question was what Putin have to do with the communism of USSR, the Russia of today is not a socialist state, Putin want the totalitarianism and the land of USSR, totalitarianism has nothing to do with capitalism or socialism.
Edit:
Look up the meaning of communism and then look up how the “Communist” government of the USSR was run and compare the two.
I’m dumb but I mixed “government” after this answer, westerns call USSR a communist state but they themselves call it socialist state, so is okay to say communist state but it’s not ok to say communist government in English? Even if government is generally a state? Genuine question.
Russia and the USSR never actually had a communist society and it’s government was party controlled totalitarianism under a mask of communism. Which, as you just stated, is what Putin wants. Only his mask is a faux democracy under capitalism. In the USSR communism was just propaganda. A way to keep the masses from revolting against the regime. Just as the “elections” held in Russia are now.
