Even in conversation with other leftists I hear people talk about how so and so doesn't have good leadership skills or want someone to be a better leader. It's getting to me in a way I probably shouldn't allow it to, but I feel like that mentality is antithetical to the goal of communism and will only delay its arrival. How do we change that rhetoric?

I'm hoping this is the right comm for this sort of post, please direct me if a more suitable place exists.

Edit: I'm not specifically talking about politics. I'm also talking about leadership talk in the workplace.

ELABORATE


anarchists don't seek leaders, we seek direct acts. Folks that do, are authoritarians. They maybe maoists, they maybe fascists, but not anarchists.

A great metaphor: fish school to thrive, sharks shoal to predate, whales pod to monopolize. Yet Orcas enrich.
