The issue is that it isn't imperialist. You are unable to demarcate between what you consider unsavory actions and imperialism.

I'm not saying that i agree with all of the USSR's actions. I never said i was in support of this particular action for that matter. I am saying that the USSR was not imperialist because it did not engage in capitalist extraction or monopolization.
