I think it would have been very difficult to have built a democratic socialist state in Russia, but I think if democracy had not been totally destroyed in and outside of the party, land reform taken more slowly, build more cooperatives, give power to real soviets and trade unions...

Sadly History is what it is and not "what ifs".

We live in a dictatorship of the markets, the 1% control the world, political power and the media.

How do the majority take that power off them without structures, like political parties that risk dictatorship ?

In Egypt we see the weakness of idealistic movements without political structures ready to take power and make change.
