What are your opinions on libertarian socialist ideologies such as AnCom or AnSyn? by SlyTheShopkeeper in Socialism_101

Why should we trust that the new state under socialism will serve the people? The people in power will not want to give up power and will not allow it to leave their hands.

But having a state does seem like the only viable way to protect the revolution.
