There is some truth in that. NK is definitely hardcore commie. Cuba is still commie, but is easing its crushing tentacles somewhat when it comes to very small mom-and-pop businesses. Laos is still commie, and while private ownership of land is prohibited, there is what is known as “land-use rights” which allow for people to occupy land, and even transfer that land-use right to another; but the state is the legal and ultimate owner of the land. Vietnam is somewhat similar to Laos. China is commie, but with definite fascist elements.
Yeah I left those out. My mistake, leaving Cuba out was a big blunder. You could also argue Venezuela is headed in the opposite direction.
