    Agreed. Anyone who nonironically believes in authoritarianism is clueless wrt human nature.

              Marxists-Leninists make up the vast majority of leftists in the world. The only place that Marxism-Leninism is not at the forefront of the left is the richest white countries in the world who coincidentally have had decades of anticommunist propaganda shoved down their throats.

              If you want to see what a decentralized leaderless revolution looks like look at Egypt in the Arab Spring. They overthrew their government and the biggest organized an disciplined political faction took over--the Muslim Brotherhood lmao.

        Sorry I don’t share your optimism. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, that’s a fact.

            Idk wtf youve decided to talk about here but just to be clear - I’m saying authoritarianism is bad because it puts all the power in the hands of a small group of people, which is probably the kind of thing you agree to be bad.

              You should read On Authority by Engels. It's a very short read(about the size of a news article) and lays out Communists ideas about "authoritarianism". The fact that you think communism is rule by a small number of people shows that you're completely indoctrinated by Western anticommunist propaganda.

                I appreciate the resource. Just so we’re on the same page, explain to me how authoritarianism as you see it can produce a set of conditions that can’t be described as “a few people holding absolute power over the majority” because that pretty much sounds like the definition of authoritarianism.
