I have often wondered the same thing and wondered too what would have been the history of the USSR if the western powers had been at least neutral toward the experiment.
A good way to forestall the verification of a theory is to prevent the data from being gathered.
I have long wondered how much of the U.S.S.R. was inherent and how much was reaction to the "white" efforts to expunge the S/soviet experiment from the face of the earth.
It is surely accidental, but the name "Trotsky" has, I seem to recall, at least a sonorous resemblence to the German word for: "nonetheless", "notwithstanding"....
May I once again adduce my unauthorized reproduction of what I consider to be one of the defining photographs of the 20th century:

....What George Steiner labelled (and I concur):
The century of barbed wire
