“I’ve seen it, the mask of humanity fall from capital—it has to take it off to kill everyone—everything you love; all the hope and tenderness in the world. It has to take it off, just for one second. To do the deed. And then you see it. As it strangles and beats your friends to death… the sweetest most courageous people in the world. You see the fear and power in its eyes. Then you know that the bourgeois are not human.”

  • I do imagine we have different views of what authoritarian means but no I am not shy. The state is a tool of class oppression and is by necessity an authoritarian institution. It is authority wielded by one class over another. I believe that a transitionary proletarian state is required in order to achieve the desired classless, stateless, moneyless society that is communism. In this way I am an “authoritarian” because I do not believe the state can be abolished in its entirety and immediately without the movement being summarily crushed by counterrevolution.

    In my view we already live under authoritarian institutions, giving the reigns of those institutions to the working class is far better than leaving them in the hands of the bourgeoisie.
