Marxism-Leninism literally does have plans for this...it's called a vanguard party and it's how the Bolsheviks took over Russia away from the czars. Mao came along and said "Eh I don't think we need an explicitly vanguard party, the peasants are pissed off enough already," and that's how the CPC took control of China.

I've never read more than a few snippets of Mao or Lenin and I know this. The whole Marxism/Leninism/Maoism dichotomy is based on how these different developments in socialist thinking led to plans for revolution. Saying "They never have any plans!" when the thing we probably bicker the most about is plans is deeply unserious.
