The politburo and the party brass represented the workers?
You can make the same argument about American politicians being the true representatives of the people
The USSR didn't have billionaires let alone millionaires until it turned capitalist. The USA does. Not the same.

Centralized power corrupts all, and the whole concept of “democratic centralism” is laughable

You are allergic to all power. You believe power is the root of all evil. We believe power can be repurposed for the proletariat.
Any state is authoritarian. Any society past hunter & gathering is. It is always one class imposing its will upon the other. The only difference is which class rules this dictatorship.

That’s not what i’m trying to do. People itt have a wildly different perspective on socialism it seems and I just wanna hear more about it.
Think they're just MLs and you're coming from the libertarian socialist perspective, could be wrong tho
Lapdogs don’t want to abolish hierarchy, like Marx said
Dictatorship of the proletariat is also a hierarchy. It sucks for rich folks. Not for the masses.
Euros 2021 coming on. Enough arguing with anarkaks. Forza Italia

You’d be correct. I’ve never spoken to ML’s before and I’m just tryna hear their perspective on things.

but it’s not
i just don't know what these clowns think real life is
revolution occurs and then what?
but it’s not
It is. You motherfuckers are afraid of the word power and all authority. Authority is not bad in the right hands. It's like being against all guns because some use it to kill innocent people.
marx was wrong to use the term “dictatorship” because people got the wrong idea.

You could make this argument to defend the police
“A few rotten apples doesn’t spoil the whole bunch”

i’m afraid of gulags and a state controlled economy.
I forgot, the state commiting atrocities on its own is justified because “counter-revolutionary”

Police per se are not bad. They protect whatever class rules. In a capitalist society they protect private property because bourgeois rule. That's why we oppose them.
In a socialist state that isn't corrupt, they will serve to protect public and personal property instead.
i just don't know what these clowns think real life is
revolution occurs and then what?
trick question because I don’t think revolution is the answer and history has shown many examples of how it doesn’t pan out the way we want.
