Didn't the USSR just do state capitalism, and not actual communism or socialism? And weren't they also totalitarian & also not a democracy? Are people actually asking for what was happening in astern Europe or something else?

The USSR was definitely communist. They called themselves communist, were inspired by communists and implemented communist policies.
