I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I'd rather hear about things that are actually happening.

You're right that they're absolutely not the same, however at a nation state level, I'd be very surprised if you could point to any communist regime at any point in history that wasn't also authoritarian or didn't end up that way
