Personally I find it going this way:

  • some person, who at least knows what socialism is, even if they're not the most well-read in the subject,
  • some way better read one, but thinks state control of enterprises suffice and trusts the state way too much as long as it has hammers and sickles,
  • some capitalism fan, who thinks socialism is evil, and that constructon company CEOs are workers, but underpaid office workers are "elites".

Rarely you get a very well read one, who understands their stuff, or the old Soviet bloc ex-communist, who switched because the local far-right party started to be very concerned about "work morals", and also think the construction company CEO is a worker and "against the elite".

Some small business tyrant, who left the USSR when they were four and who doesn't pay his staff, telling me how bad the Soviet Union was.

This is a stupid meme. Most people alive today that lived there before its collapse wish it had not.

Furthermore its dissolution was literally illegal and undemocratic.
