The USSR no longer exists as a political entity. During its time, it was enormously progressive, and the democratic means by which its constitution was drafted is a reflection of that worker authority. It's a meme contesting the idea of "Soviet authoritarianism," the soviets used authority in favor of the working classes, by the working classes, while the Statesians used it by and for capitalists.
