It would be interesting what Marx would say with the hindsight of observing Soviet capitalism, and how it fundamentally failed to solve the class struggle.

He'd write a bunch of books making excuses for the failings of his approach.

Soviet Capitalism never existed. The Russians barely made any effort at enshrining a just rule of law, protecting individual rights, including protecting property rights.

One of the first things Putin did when he took power is to begin destroying individual rights (so as to bolster the power of the state), which market based economic systems rest upon.
