As soon as power is attained and consolidated, the vanguard party becomes reactionary and counterrevolutionary. It is the nature of the State to acquire power, never to relinquish it.

I mean, it’s kinda weird how in the transition to communism (according to authoritarian socialists) you apparently need a totalitarian state to achieve a society with no state.

Although I’ll admit, it does kinda make sense to me now.
As a Marxist-Leninist I
believe a vanguard state is necessary to protect the revolution from reactionaries and
counterrevolutionaries. Yeah, but it's just a transition state
and the state will disappear once
the capitalists are defeated, right? Right, Turtle?
