And unregulated hyper-capitalism is what happens when communism fails
Yes, which is why it is important to protect communist projects from capitalist backed coups, like the presidential coup that illegally and undemocratically dissolved the USSR
Quite funny of you to mention undemocratic in the context of the USSR, as if it had been a democracy even one day of its existence. And about illegal, most of the times a country and its constitution is absolved its technically illegal. I can only think of the German constitution that actually has clauses on how to legally phase it out.
There was a fucking referendum where people voted for not dissolving the Union and it was ignored. It can't go more undemocratic than that.
