Controlling the means of production is, IIRC, a Marxist goal.

But letting the businesses remain in “ private ownership” of individuals and businesses that comply with govt orders……willingly or by coercion….is fascism

A much more efficient way to exploit human self-interest, greed and talent than by turning the means of production over to central govt bureaucrats and party loyalists….as history showed by the economic failure of Marxist communism in Russia.

Modern Russia is actually no longer a textbook example of communism
