    The withering of the state as a concept is a foundational part of ML theory and it does seem as though you’re being intentionally obtuse. I don’t think you would run into a ton of people who believe that OPs meme is an implausible situation as this is the exact reason continuous revolution exists as a concept. The transitional state has to be scrutinized so as not to become a tool of bourgeois capitalism once more.

    So yeah to echo what the others said to you: you should read more theory. Your understanding of these concepts seems to be more memetic than anything.

      lol No, my understanding is not lacking. I know what ML prescribes and imagines. I disagree it’s such a hopeful premise IRL.

      It’s also stupid to call any transitionary period ‘communism’ itself, either, much like supposedly China today.
