First you have wrong idea. Strikes arent the only aspect of worker rights. Soviet workers had rights like 40 hour work week, free healthcare, education, pensions, housing. USSR was already ruled by soviets i.e. worker council so they didnt need strikes. This stems from the fact that workers had real control on policy of the state and elections that were held altho only party put up candidates one could vote no to them and the candidate will be replaced, those candidates then went to supreme soviets and had real affect on policy (unlike the current western liberal democracy which leads to policies that benefits the rich). The turnouts in those elections used to be exceptionally high.
Under DoTP you dont need strikes in the modern sense because revolution has brought pro worker changes, sure there could be different perspectives regarding this and stuff could be done differently in future ML revolutions. As I said however strikes arent the only measure of worker rights. If you see yourself you would agree workers in USSR had better rights than workers even do today. After collapse of USSR, in all SSRs poverty increased, savings ended, unemployment skyrocket, life expectancy declined, income inequality increased, ethnic conflicts, oligarchic state capture, etc.
Worker rights in USSR were way better than what former SSRs have today. I am not defending USSR in bad faith, USSR had some important contribution to socialist development and it was just the first one, we learn and build better next time.
Edit: Not ban evasion because ban was from different instance, not community :D
Oh yes it definitely had, am I missing something?
I mean, there’s the part where worker strikes were illegal until 80s, to start with. And the one-party government with pre-approved candidates.
Edit: ah, 1 day old “Marxist Leninist” account specifically made to defend the Soviets in bad faith. Totally not ban evasion, eh?

Yeah buddy, you clearly need to read some more theory. And also maybe touch grass while you’re at it.
Ive read most of the mainstream marxist leninist literature. What do you recommend?
