That is just plain false. Anarchism, one of the two major schools of revolutionary socialism, is entirely dedicated on taking matters into ones own hands and rejecting any reliance on the state to achieve communism. By saying "You aren't entitled to what others have earned." you are also making very clear that you don't understand any socialist critiques of property. Socialism is the doctrine of the emancipation of labour from capital. Labour produces all in society and is therefore entitled to all. It is only by using government force that the idea of property for the capitalist class can be maintained. You are accusing socialists of relying on state violence to enrich themselves when the function of the state is to allow the capitalist class to rely on state violence to enrich themselves. Why do you think we have police, and laws defending property?
