Yeah sure. But you still can’t call anything you don’t like “communism”. Russia today is not communist. Words have meanings.

I am plenty old enough to remember that crap. I am definitely anti-marxist etc. but today's Russia is not marxist by any stretch of the imagination.

If you are as old as you are claiming, then you should remember what happened to the USSR and how it completely failed, and the history since then. If you knew all that you would not be saying that current Russia is communist. You would have to be completely ignorant to say otherwise or simply brainwashed by some assholes in media.
