It’s a feature of initial socialist governments, because nobody knows how to make an economic system that’s based directly on the workers. We mostly imagine it in terms of coops, but there’s a reason why those don’t predominate.

You’re suggesting some form of anarcho-communism, which has never worked at any level, not even on the small scale. And, of course, you’re trying to explain this away with conspiracy theories about the powers-that-be allowing it.

As I pointed out in that blog post, if your desired system is so feeble that it can’t outcompete the previous one, what chance does it have?

You can’t say, “What I propose would work just fine, so long as none of the alternatives were allowed”. That’s admitting it can’t work.
