I don't know if it helps, but I'm pretty positive the USSR in Cyberpunk is different than the real USSR. It also had communism collapse and is essentially run by an oil corporation (and then later by oligarchs).
i mean that's the usual way socialism is framed in capitalist media. "Whenever you try it, it's just capitalism, but worse!"
"Socialism doesn't work because a small number of elites hoard resources and sabotage society to further their own self-interest."
Yeah... I'm pretty sick of capitalist realism in media.
