Rising up against the Oligarchs does not equal socialism

There are ‘people’s’ groups all over the world who advocate the overthrow of the men at the top -the Oligarchs – who control nations.
These people’s groups want to install socialism as the answer to Oligarchy.
That’s preposterous.
The Oligarchs – bankers, mega-corporate CEOs, financiers, government leaders, intelligence agencies – collude to cut out competition so they can stand alone at the summit of the mountain. And they call this arrangement SOCIALISM. They PROMOTE socialism. They’ve staked out OWNERSHIP of socialism worldwide.
In other words, the ‘people’s’ groups, who claim to be battling for a better world, are doing the Oligarchs’ bidding. Unconsciously, or on purpose.
Useful idiots.
Socialism has never been about toppling power-hungry leaders. Its pretension of equality and share-and-care is a cover for totalitarianism by the few, for the few.
Karl Marx, while predicting a coming utopia on Earth, expressed the absolute need for a ‘transition’ phase called the ‘dictatorship of the proletariat.’
