    No idea what you’re meaning at all, nor why you think I agree with you. Reform is a dead end, revolution is necessary. This seems to run to the polar opposite of what you’re saying. No idea what you mean by me saying I “say words without understanding their meaning” nor how that’s applicable here.

        Revolution is the overthrow of the class that controls the state and the commanding heights of the economy by another class. Labor is inherent, labor-power is commodified labor. The working classes, through revolution, sieze control of the state and the commanding heights of industry, smashing the old capitalist state and replacing it with a proletarian one.

        Revolution is the conquest of state power by a given class, legitimized through a monopoly on force and the commanding heights of the economy.
