Always thought that quote was far too oversimplified to be valid. There's a vast difference between underpaid fast food workers and the Gulag. There's a vast difference between the FBI and the KGB.
Personal liberties and freedom exist in capitalist societies to varying to degrees. They have never existed in Communist societies. They are authoritarian right from the minute they get into power which they almost always take violently.
