What are you talking about?
I'm talking about bolshevik parties and their bureaucracy becoming the new capitalist or ruling class as Bakunin told Marx would happen
Why do democratically elected government officials constitute a "class?" How would Socialism be Capitalism?
Bakunin himself was incredibly antisemetic, and considered the State itself to be a Jewish Conspiracy, so I'm not sure we should trust the background of his arguments.
Yes, and Mussolini won by plebiscite.
The best democratic elections are those where you only have one choice, it's known.
