    Who decides what peoples history and thoughts are correct? Supose you use the authority of the workclass to rule, some persons (the ones who study it more) will represent the historical ideas of people, as describe during the text. This representants will authority over the people who dont study politics or history, but what line determines that this representant will not sucumbe to power? Just for being opressed before doesnt mean that they will not opress further. The human being is a really instable creature, sometimes subordinated to ego and passions. A good person could sucumbe to power when she has more authority than the people at her side

      The workclass is not a person itself, so, in an authoritianism context, it has to be represented by whatever number of people (that it is always less than the total of the workclass itself) considered better to do that. Who decides that - knowing that the workclass cant decide for itself, because it is not a person, and can just be represented by a group of people (even when it is the most of the workclass, it is not the workclass itself)?

        The worst thing in authority is that it has to be represented. The representation weaks the good things that we could get of “authority” (when authority, for me, turns to be not the best word to describe)
