Bruh lmfao do these people even read what they wrote?

“China has the world’s largest population and they overwhelmingly support their one party... it’s almost like that one party is working for them and that’s why... I think the secret to China’s tyranny is that they were poor and had the world’s largest population in poverty. China then lifted these people out of poverty and believe it or not, the people liked that! I wonder if people who lived in the Soviet Union were also happy to be lifted out of poverty? Anyway this is a success story of tyranny and not socialism.”

It may come as an absolute shock that this is from a post about Tiananmen Square but here’s a link to the comment lol have fun

    No. It's basic Marxist thought that the state is the means by which one class oppresses the other. Slaveowners had to have a state to oppress slaves (and by extension stay the slaveowners), feudal lords had to have a state to oppress serfs. Under capitalism the state is the mechanism by which the bourgeoisie oppress the proletariat through upholding the institution of private ownership. You live under "the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie". It's only logical and completely moral to want to institute a "dictatorship of the proletariat" if you want liberate your class. Nothing anarchist about it.

    Read Lenin people.
