    Secondly, saying the problems of your “oligarchy neo liberalism mix” are due to capitalism shouldn’t be a problem because it’s true.

    Then Stalinism style authoritarianism is also due to socialism. Socialism, through the centralisation of power in the state intrinsically creates the incentive structures to turn Marxism into state authoritarianism.

      Yeah nah. Any anarchist will tell you that centralisation of power in the state is not in fact an inherent trait of socialism. Statist socialists might think it’s ineffective, but it’s definitely possible to work towards communism by distributing power rather than concentrating it, and historical precedents for this do exist.
