Except the OP doesnt claim to have an all-encompassing worldview that demands to change all of society and then ends up just killing a couple of million people before collapsing.

Its not that "we've got to do away with them", its that socialism will a stage the state, nations and money will serve no purpose and will wither away in use. As for the other things, he never said he wanted to get rid of them.

Socialism isn't "the state running the economy". Some capitalist states like Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and Britain during WW2 had their economies almost entirely directed by the state, yet they weren't socialism because the means of production hadn't been socialized. In fact, as socialism advances, more and more planning and production will be turned over to the working class to organize for themselves, and as they learn how to do it, eventually they won't need the state to organize production anymore and will be able to do it for themselves.

Im not saying that socialism IS the state running things, but Marx requires that the worker's state will eventually take control over everything, and will then miraculously wither away, a prediction that we should just trust completely and not be suspicious of at all.

Well what do you mean "take over everything"? The primary reason we need a state is to make sure the bourgeoisie don't just take over again. Even though you might have a revolution, the bourgeoisie aren't just going to disappear. So you need a dictatorship of the proletariat to make sure they can't launch a counter revolution. The won't control *everything*.

Curiously, there is an almost imperceptible Gnostic pit under all of his nonsense, so faint that not even he realizes.
