I consider China "state capitalism" (I don't think the workers even own the means of production). Certainly not the kind of authoritarian "Marxism" I'd want anyway.
I skimmed through the article, and it makes a lot of mentions of Germany and France, so I'm guessing it didn't work out to well in those countries.
I don’t think anyone really wants authoritarian Marxism, but they established a legacy that is still studied today. It would be interesting to know what they thought of the movement today.
