you are contradicting yourself

"He wanted absolute power for the state"

"He has nothing in common with socialism"

I'm not, Socialism is not by nature authoritarian or statist. Authoritarianism can be left or right or centre, but the economical difference distinguishes Fascism from Communism (as in Soviet Communism).

 

how do you achieve socialism without people abiding by the rules of a state or community?

if authoritarianism can be in any position on the spectrum where would its opposite be positioned or can that be placed anywhere too?
