Some Thoughts on the Dictatorship of the Proletariat – INIP
"Many workers today are confused about a key concept of historical materialism, the idea of the 'dictatorship of the proletariat.'
"It is a very literal English translation, it means exactly how it reads: the idea that workers should have political power, instead of the bosses, corporations and landlords—essentially the exact opposite of what we have today.
"We live under the 'dictatorship of Capital,' where everything is reduced to exchange values and commodification, even people."
Why do you think Marx began his examination of capitalism with the "commodity"?

He was not speaking in euphemisms or code or metaphor he meant DICTATORSHIP and TYRANNY with all of the attendant violence and oppression.
He meant that a panel or committee or group would dictate to the world every aspect of every persons life.
