Of course it was! China and Russia are two massive WIP experiments at authoritarian capitalism, they just stopped seriously believing that they could abandon authoritarianism. The capitalism part, well... China might be a "little" hung up, but they're becoming more Confucian every day.

The upper classes create jobs to manage our time, the same with the goods we produce. All of it is to have us in certain places at certain times doing certain things. Population too high? Poison the food and decrease wages, raise cost of living and we stop having so many kids. Etc. The struggle is economic, but to fight, as the old socialists did, for more or better work, is self defeating.

The appropriation of surplus labor value in the unequal wage labor, rent system, and credit system arrangements between those with everything and those with nothing.
