Well if we look at China, Cuba, the USSR, Vietnam, Laos, you get invaded/bombed by America.

But also continue to work really hard, but now your labor goes to bringing yourself and a billion others out of poverty instead of further expanding the power of the bourgeoisie.

When was the USSR, China, and Cuba bombed by America directly after their revolution?

The USSR was invaded by every capitalist country that still had a significant army after WWI. Bombing civilians in Cuba was just one part of Operation Mongoose. During the Korean war, Shanghai, Dandong, and Ji'an were bombed by the psycho Lemay. They are still somewhat sore about that.
