| | H.3 What are the myths of state socialism? |
 | | Against this, we have to note that the Manifesto states that the proletarian movement was "the self-conscious, independent movement of the immense majority, in the interests of the immense majority" (although, as discussed in section H.1.1, when they wrote this the proletariat was a minority in all countries bar Britain). | | | Everybody will be equal, not only from the judicial and political but also from the economic standpoint. | | | This can be seen from the works of the leading US Autonomist Marxist Harry Cleaver. |

| | Whether mankind would like to see this daring revolution usher in a one-world Marxist dictatorship is completely irrelevant. | | | Thus, communism will be ushered in by the dialectic and social evolution, through the vehicle of the dictatorship of the proletariat (guided by the Marxist/Leninist party). | | | In Marxist political theory, the Marxist/Leninist party acts as the guiding force for the working class and, once in power, the enforcer of socialist laws. |

| | The Celia Hart Controversy: Stalinism or Leninism - Part Three |
| | The Leninist regime was destroyed by Stalin and replaced by a bureaucratic and totalitarian regime in which the sole duty of the Party was to sing the praises of the Leader, and in which opposition and dissent was rewarded by expulsion, arrest and imprisonment. | | | Nor will the fortunes of the Party improve until it has broken decisively with its Stalinist past and decisively taken the Leninist road. | | | Lenin stood for class politics, for revolutionary politics, not nationalism and class collaborationism. |

| | Attempts to inaugurate vanguard Leninist parties in the imperialist countries during the last thirty years or so have not been a success. | | | The founding of "revolutionary" parties on insubstantial ideological, political and organisational bases continues as is evidenced by the 'Communist Party of Great Britain' and the Socialist Labour Party. | | | This is not to claim that the organisational form of the Bolshevik and other Third International parties should be slavishly copied. |

| | How Leninism distorts Marxism |
| | Leninists believe that the Russian Revolution of 1917, led by Lenin and the Bolshevik Party, was a great socialist revolution that overthrew capitalism and put the working class in power, i.e., it was a workers’ state, healthy or otherwise, i.e., bureaucratically degenerated. | | | For us, Leninist vanguard parties and state capitalist party states posing as “workers’ states” are tragic failed nightmares that continued capitalist social relations in statified form. | | | Usually these political parties claim to be the sole representatives or leaders of the working class. |

| | 16 - Is a Marxist-Leninist Party Needed? by Danny Rubin > |
| | The Communist Party of Columbia and several other CP's differentiated between "militants" and those nominal members who went along with Marxism-Leninism but never really embraced it and did little more than vote for the Party. | | | That doesn't mean there isn't room for broad left formations but they are not a substitute for the mass democratic and the mass democratic movement will not gradually and eventually join the broadly-left formation, even though some day they will come to its politics through their own experience and organizational forms. | | | Where I want to go is to a Marxist party, - not of the old type, but one which is sufficiently large and such a center of attraction of the left that it can seriously seek to become a mass Party of 500,000 to a million members or more and with a vote commensurately larger. |

| | 'The Leninist principle of peaceful coexistence of states with differing socio-economic and political systems does not mean just an absence of war, a temporary state of unstable cease-fire. | | | However, connected to the re-emergence of revisionism in the Marxist movement is the important lesson that not all those claiming to be opposed to revisionism are Marxist-Leninists. | | | Therefore, it is clear that those in the communist movement, pseudo-left elements, who do not distinguish between Leninist and Khrushchevite peaceful coexistence, are provocateurs inciting war against socialism. |
