What's annoying is that we probably would be a whole lot closer to actual communism and anarchism if the bolsheviks never took power and destroy all the communism that was happening during the Russian revolution.

Yup, and for a deep dive into the history of how this happened in both the USSR and Maoist China, I'd recommend Anark's series The State is Counterrevolutionary.
