    Didn’t Marx warn of an authoritarian takeover of a people’s revolution and how that was no different than having a bourgeoisie?

      Guy Debord criticized the Soviet Union for creating a new class system. He still believed in Marxism, but didn’t believe that the structure of the Soviet Union was able to create the conditions for communism.

      I don’t think Marx ever condemned the word “authoritarian.” Or said anything about a dictatorship of the proletariat becoming more unjust than a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. That doesn’t sound like anything he’d say.
