It could only be so if it was hijacked by tankies... which, unfortunately, seems quite likely here on lemmy.ml.

What do you have against tankies?

[–] masquenox@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Gee... what could I possibly have against grifters that want to twist the concept of socialism into "whatever Dear Brother Leader says it is"?

Tankies want to want socialism by action. Non-tankies just talk about it, sit and wait

Tankies want to want socialism by action.

No. They don't. They want to be a new political elite - and that's it.

Can please cite your sources?

You need sources for this?

There is absolutely no amount of theory that could make the "self-withering state" a reality. It's about as plausible as the second coming of Jesus Christ - and pretty much serves the same purpose, too.
