In what manner was the Communist Party “dictatorial?” It held immense power, yes, but it wasn’t 1 dude deciding everything,
Ah yes, as long as there is at least 2 dudes deciding everything it’s not a dictatorship.
there was worker participation in how it ran and the party itself was democratically run.
As long as you liked the way that the party wanted things to be, yes.
How, exactly, did Lenin “fuck socialism for a century?”
His party went on to encourage other revolutionary groups to adapt the anti-socialist Leninist-Stalinist structure, at times actively sabotaging socialist movements that were structured differently.
In those times you either fell behind the ML party line or had no support from the international movement, the russian communists absolutely fucked it all up.
