  27.  @oscartang4587u3  The literal first goal of post-revolutionary communism is to establish democracy. In fact, the Communist Manifesto specifically states that revolution isn't even necessary in democratic states. "We have seen above, that the first step in the revolution by the working class is to raise the proletariat to the position of ruling class to win the battle of democracy." "Question 16: How do you think the transition from the present situation to community of Property is to be effected? Answer: The first, fundamental condition for the introduction of community of property is the political liberation of the proletariat through a democratic constitution." "Question 17: What will be your first measure once you have established democracy? Answer: Guaranteeing the subsistence of the proletariat." Event he section you previously quoted was really just your lack of understanding. They were saying that the only way you can guarantee democracy and fairness for the workers is by changing the system as it existed before. It then lists how the parts of the previous system would be changed democratically, and even states that these changes would not be all at once, and would require systematic change by the people. In fact the stuff they list is pretty damn progressive: Progressive taxation Inheritance taxes Compensation paid from businesses to employees for the work they have performed without proper payment over the years Minimum wage laws National banking system National manufacturing initiatives Universal education Construction of low-income housing Destruction of dangerous and poorly constructed houses Equal inheritance rights for children born out of wedlock National transportation network I mean, you could argue that it goes too far with some of the other measures, but many countries currently do a lot of this stuff these days.
