why is it that socialism always seems to devolve into some kind of dictatorship......?
could that be because socialism itself is based upon FORCE.....?
Well of course. Socialism by it's very nature, involves government control.
The reason that Socialism, inherently results in a brutal dictatorship, is because people don't like their stuff taken away. No one will voluntarily give up the ownership to all there stuff. No one.
So the end result is, you have to force it. You have to force them to relinquish their stuff. And generally if you just take their stuff and let them go, they'll end up finding someone, and backing and supporting someone, that will help them get their stuff back.
So typically, you end up brutally slaughtering, and oppressing those people, to make it work, and not lose power.
