Lenin’s foundational principle of the Vanguard is explicitly antithetical to Marxism, imo. You cannot impose a revolution of the people onto the people, that is just new tyranny.
MLs are not left, they are wolves in sheep’s clothing.
You are criticizing authoritarians, an inherently right wing status.
A core principle of leninism and any sort of socialism is adhering to the needs of the masses and working in coordination with the masses. Having a vanguard party doesn’t mean imposing something forcibly on people, and there would be other mass organizations aside from the core vanguard party that work together.
