So when Russia succeeds it's due to communism but when it tortures and executes millions of political prisoners, enslaves eastern europe, supports endless civil war in the 3rd world and threatens the world with radioactive destruction it wasn't "true communism".

The truth is Russia wasn't communist, it was just a regular dicatorship that used marxist-leninism as it's state religion. This is possibly the worst outcome for you though, it means marxist-leninism had about as much effect as any other "opiate of the masses" on encouraging the masses to revolt. It was only when an educated middle class formed after 7 decades that Russia finally shed it's tyranny.

Thankyou Reagan.

what the russians had was fake socialism
Well duh, Chomsky may well be considered an intellectual by stupid people but he often misses the obvious, the entire population of the soviet union was indoctrinated from birth into the works of Karl Marx and Lenin yet they never did all that much to resist tyranny. Socialism is deeply flawed, in large part because it is not logic but a dogmatic ideology though also because of certain assumptions it makes about class and society.
