"People's Army" = the violent thugs in the employ of the new state, to replace the violent thugs in the employ of the old one.

"Support of the Proletariat" = the alternating oppression and indoctrination of the people will continue, under new management.

And all in support of:

"Vanguard Party" = the new ruling class.

No, see, you don't get it because you haven't read enough theory. If you read more theory you would understand why we need to simp for ~~literal dictators~~ benevolent leaders with Chinese characteristics.

This. You promise lots of stuff with "the people's" in it, and then you create something that is indistinguishable from 19th century, robber baron capitalism.

No nation on earth has ever actually practiced communism that isn't just a small, ruling class of billionaires, who use the media they own to keep the lower classes fighting with each other while they . . . the rich . . . run off with all the farking money.

The only exceptions to this were small communes, run by people who actually read Karl Marx and who weren't vain, greedy, brutal a$$holes.

lol the owner class isn't going to love you just because you call holding them accountable "oppression"

Who said anything about the "owner class?"

The oppression I'm talking about is that which the "vanguard party" (the new owner class) will direct against those of the people who don't submit to their claimed authority.
