Didn't the USSR just do state capitalism, and not actual communism or socialism? And weren't they also totalitarian & also not a democracy? Are people actually asking for what was happening in astern Europe or something else?

if the government owns the economy (i.e. plans it) and the people don't control the government (i.e. no or bad democracy), then it is state capitalism.
