I appreciate your honesty regarding your view that the Soviets "though they went too far", were on the right track.

I, on the other hand, find little about the Soviet direction which is desirable.
To me it's similar to saying that Saddam, though he went too far, was going in the right direction.

I actually like it when a country's leader doesn't stay in power for much more than a decade.

I actually think a free press is a good thing.

And as a rule, I don't think well of a country that bans their author's books.
I'm not fond of such things like the Gulag as mechanism to suppress political dissent- and generally not keen on any kind of suppression of political dissent- less alone forced labor in some frozen hellhole which could come as a knock at door in the middle of the night.
