Some people on the left recognize that planned economies are more efficient than markets based on empirical research on the soviet economy

I agree! But a planned economy, you could say is, in essence, an extremely tightly regulated market. Whereas the opposite of that, a complete lack of regulation is anarcho capitalism, a completely right wing idea.

Why do you believe this?

You know you can do planning without markets right? Like without price signals and entities buying and selling to each other
