I've gone over several times in great detail the links between A.N.S.W.E.R., the Worker's World organization, and many of the other openly communist organizations backing these demonstrations, and sometimes organizing them. I'm not going to do it again, because apparently you're not interested in uncomfortable facts. Sorry if you don't like the word "Stalinist." I know why it makes leftists uncomfortable--don't know why it bothers you.
There are no "democratic" collectivist societies. There has never been a "democratic" collectivist society above the level of a commune, and even communes don't work well. There CANNOT be a "democratic" collectivist society. The very concept of socialism requires massive centralized economic and political control to function as a socialized economy.
Hayek knew this back in the 40's. It's self-evident to anyone who follows how the mechanism of collectivized societies have to work.
And even if you choose to ignore the philosophical reasoning, you have the evidence of history. Every single nation that has adopted a collectivist way of organizing itself has ended up as a totalitarian hellhole up to its knees in corpses.
At some point, when the doctor has killed every patient he has ever treated, you might want to consider that maybe his methods are basically flawed.
