I was wondering why the USSR is universally beloved among Marxist-Leninists but other AES states tend to be more controversial. So I looked into it.
Saved Europe from Fascism
Abolished private property
Abolished wealth accumulation
Centrally Planned Economy, quotas, prices, wages, EVERYTHING
State Atheism - BASED
Universal Literacy
First Man Into Space
Public Healthcare
Public Housing
Public Transportation
Holy sea cow SpongeBob! Any anarchist would fall out of their chair if one of their projects achieved even one of these things.
What in your opinion are the greatest policies and achievements of The USSR?
I have to agree successful social policies are the greatest achievement. Everything else is impressive, but not at the cost of a weak, sick, ignorant masses. Healthy, well educated people strengthen the state and any projects the state chooses to undertake.
