You can answer if and when you want, as anyone else.
I admit i knew and still know very little of the early years of the russian revolution, and i know nothing of the early years of all the other marxist revolutions, i just see what they all have been for such a long time and what they have become: dictatorships of a party, sometimes even with a "great leader", and state capitalism (or an hybrid between state capitalism and individual capitalism) above lots of people working in very poor conditions; my question is how did that initial situation, with a dictatorship embodied mainly by workers and peasants, never succeed in turning less and less authoritarian, and instead got more and more authoritarian and exploitative?
I also have a question for people knowing more than me about the history of anarchist thought: the idea of Kropotkin and many other anarchists was to have no central government, only soviets or the likes, where people from all walks of life would take turns also at the most menial jobs, so that engineers, for example, would know what life was like for miners and work harder to make that work less burdensome for everyone. I find it unlikely that most engineers would have welcomed this, and that they would welcome it today, so how did Kropotkin plan to convince them?
