    Yay, we overthrew the bourgeoisie. Lets create a new state-less class-less society where…

    Wait what are you doing? I thought you said we’re only letting you rule temporarily. You said we were gonna create a better world together, a world ruled by the proletariat. You were supposed to destroy the bourgeoisie, not become them!

      It’s an endless cycle. You work hard to enforce your ideals, then when you have the power to make decisions you realize how dependent you are on others to facilitate action. And every one of those people wants something in exchange. Suddenly the ideals you sought to enforce become diluted by compromise, everyone is unhappy and there’s a giant bear called greed knocking on the door into your mind.
