You can basically define the Left as "we want all the power."
John Larkin thinks you can. He can't tell difference between totalitarian socialism - communism - and democratic socialism which works remarkably well in most of Europe.
Which is why Marxism = Hunger.
Karl Marx was a ground-breaking economist and a political idiot. Marxist economics makes sense, but nobody call it that these days, because the political idiocy has damaged the brand.
Authoritarian rule does lead to hunger, because you don't get the right feedback from the population you are ruling. Democracy provides the feedback that lets problems get dealt with before they start damaging people.
Donald Trump's contempt for democratic norms lead to a lot more Americans dying of Covid-19 than really should have done.
