I'm saying that the transition phase being authoritarian is a mistake. Power always corrupts people, and the only way to make sure a worker's revolution doesn't end up failing is to implement a democratic transition government. Everyone gets a vote, and can run for and hold office. And anyone who has ever owned or managed a large bussiness or has ever accumulated a net worth of one million USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) or more is banned from holding office. Worker's rights should be entrenched into a constitution, and cannot be redefined unless 3/4 of the people agrees on it.
That's how I think it should be. Not some "communist party" that would become the new bourgeoisie as soon as the old one is eliminated.
