Control by a bunch of party bureaucrats and apparatchiks who, like their counter-parts in corporate capitalist countries, are only interested in maintaining and expanding their own power and privilege in no way constitutes anything that can be called "collective" with a straight face - period.

The term "socialism" has a very hard and uncompromising meaning - it becomes utterly meaningless when it becomes whatever "Dear Brother Comrade Leader" says it is.
