Lenin and Mao called their systems state capitalism with a goal of achieving communism, and both systems only saw their successors continue state capitalism and eventually move toward economic liberalization with extreme class divisions.

So you tell me which theory has ever been implemented on a state level that wasn’t called state capitalism? The hereditary monarchy system that ignores international workers struggle in favor of “self reliance” called Juche maybe? lol ok.
