      Russia: a tsarist autocracy.

      China: an imperial monarchy.

      Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, North Korea: colonial or agrarian societies.

      Cuba: Batista’s corrupt military dictatorship.

      Has communism actually ever risen from a free market capitalist country? The other way happened a lot. Marx was definitely wrong about this one.

      As for FOSS, I believe the key is personal freedom, not the economic system that much. Linus just did what he wanted to do and he didn’t need any permission.
