Pssh, we don't want to control you, we want you to control you. You sound like one of those people who will say "We need to do X," but will then denounce every plan to actually do X.

Seriously tho fam, why do you think communism requires a transitional state when it's never worked before?

Not op but not a single anarchist movement has lasted beyond a few years.
Really existing communism however took an agrarian peasant nation to the second super power of the world, defeated nazi Germany, first man into space, first woman into space and launched the first satellite into orbit.
Hell, even the non stalinist state of Yugoslavia lasted until NATO dismembered it in the 90s.

State capitalism is an appallng reduction of the USSR.
They effectively got rid of the private profit motive and surplus value of labour. If your analysis of the ussr is state capitalism its a poor analysis.

They all worked perfectly well, until foreign capital interfered. And Cuba is still going strong despite interference.
