Yeah.

But indeed, Russian totalitarianism was different from the Nazi or Maoist system. China has recently become, or seems to have become, something like a pomo Sovok, and the Reich never had a chance to grow to middle age, but the Soviet system after Stalin, and especially after Brezhnev, was -- as they say -- pretty vegetarian... (not a very Russian analogy, though).
