I don't think this could happen unless it was wildly undemocratic and also the capitalists somehow had a reason to band together against the workers instead of splintering into cliques like any actual capitalist society in history

The closest examples of that I know of were Nazi Germany and South Korea's 5 year plans but it's clear to me those countries didn't stand for what Russia stands for.
Plants posted:Russian capitalists had some huge victories in the 90s and eventually they will be defeated. So At what point in their decline does it no longer constitute capitalism? Do you want Russia to specifically have a Peopole's Republic of Russia led by a Marxist-Leninst Communist Party of Russia? This would be spectacular but it's not a necessary condition for the end of capitalism.
please respond to this cunning and spectacular point
