If you are familiar with the Paris Commune of 1871, you'd know what was meant by that term, according to Engels.
It is not a call to install 'a' dictator to usher in a new socialist world. It is the act of overthrowing the 'dictatorship of capital.' The character of the people should be radically democratic, and aim to put all social institutions in the collective hands of everyone who is affected by them. The only magic going on here is the mystification of what has been plainly laid out over the past two centuries, and attempted by numerous cultures across the globe, with varying degrees of success, in no small part due to people who knew what it means to take power away from self-interested tyrants.
“Varying degrees of success” is a great euphemism for “more people killed than several holocausts”
Anything's possible when you make shit up
The Holodemor alone killed almost as many people as the Holocaust, and that’s just one item in a very long list of communist “whoopsies”.
You didn't even spell it right lol, it's literally the entire name of the linked article, and Wikipedia isn't a source or a reliable aggregator of sources for anything remotely controversial
I’m sorry, I didn’t spell the name of your favorite genocide right, that means it didn’t happen!
Just another famine in in a region with a long history of regularly occuring famines, and the areas affected were ethnically mixed with no evidence to suggest a target, so even if it were intentional it wouldn't qualify as a genocide
