The Soviet Union was a state capitalist dictatorship. Those who controlled the government formed the ruling capitalist class. Communism will have no government.
Communism: It is to keep every man equal and average. No one can own private property and it was their form of government/economics.
The Soviet Union was a ruthless dictatorship with no respect for human rights, which was involved in many terrible crimes against humanity, particularly during the regime of Josef Stalin.

Russia is now an Illiberal Democracy as opposed to a Communist Dictatorship. Most former Soviet States sit on the continuum from Illiberal Democracy and Dictatorship, but none are Communist anymore.
