    This isn’t true, unless you have a different conception of what “class” is from Marx and Marxists. The State is the only path to a stateless society, in that the state disappears once all property is publicly owned and planned, and thus the “state” whithers away, leaving government behind.

    For Marx, the State is chiefly the instruments of government that reinforce class society, like Private Property Rights, not the entire government.
