Haven't you talked to people? The opinion of the masses is BAD. Most people are crazy stupid. The rest -- don't have enough information to form a good opinion. We really need (except for trivial cases which are many, but still far from all) "professional opinion makers". Party.
All institutions act according to their interests; by reducing decision-making to a small group, you necessarily create the conditions in which that institution will make decisions according to their interests, and not the interests of the masses. This conflict between the masses and the institution results in instability, and damages any attempt at creating long-term change.
Vanguard parties are self-defeating; they presage nothing but the rule of that selfsame vanguard.
That's why we need to educate the masses, not control them.
Correct.
Thus Stalinism is just "leftist conservatism". It seeks to maintain the hierarchies of the past, but with new people.
I've worked with enough engineers and teams to know you usually need an adult in the room.
Just look at Linux desktop 🤣
