point 1:

representatives did not get elected for a certain (maximum) timeframe and could always be voted out again.

point 2:

(possibly rightfully arguing that the burgeoise could not accurately represent the workers)

You are asking him to have stopped before completing the beginning of the revolution, {…}

i am not asking to stop in the middle, i am asking to do their homework. if you have a vote, are unhappy with the results, force your way… that means either you don’t have the support from the general population or did not properly prepare for the system you had a vote in.

point 3:

While I will not say it was a good thing to match it with violence, {…}

{…} it is difficult to side with the Sailors against the forming Socialist Republic.

if open opposition, demonstrations, strikes, etc. are not allowed, even faced with violence - democracy has failed. in theory you could vote representatives out, but if you know those with the power are not shy to imprison and kill you it is not dêmos krátos anymore, just krátos.

point 4:*

I have, and it does work, {…}

really? which communist small government are you part of? i am really interested in finding out about modern attempts in communism.

{…} ignored the idea of the Mass Line {…}
