Well, whatever. I could play that game too:

"I don't believe you want to leave any more than a skeletal and
effectively useless remnant of physical property, rather as communist
states left a skeletal and effectively useless pretence of freedom"

(modulo Serge Skorokhodov's concerns about your understanding (and mine
own is likely no better) about actual freedoms in the USSR under its
nominally communist rule, I'm just illustrating the emptiness of your
statement)
