Trump (or anyone else for that matter) becoming dictator of the US would be a good thing actually

There's been a lot of talk about Donald Trump becoming a dictator. Most of it however seems to center on whether this will happen, with the implicit assumption that it happening would be a bad thing. I don't think it will happen, but if it did, it would be a good thing.

While centralization and concentration of production brings more power to the bourgeoisie, it at the same time strengthens and unifies the proletariat by creating a single mass of workers with shared interests and shared experiences, while creating a single point of failure for capital. It is clear that the benefits outweigh the downsides.

In the imperialist core, their citizens are heavily enthralled in the drama of the bourgeois parties. The anger of workers that could otherwise be put to productive use is diverted to focus on bourgeois elections and other counterproductive endeavors. Workers are propagandized - either by the bourgeois parties and their shills, or self-propagandizing themselves to justify a solution in a seemingly hopeless situation - into believing their plights can be resolved by bourgeois political parties, rather by the use of the true power they possess themselves.

The trade-off with respect to centralization would be even better here. There would be no downsides - all mechanisms that can be used by the state against workers are already implemented and used to the maximum degree - only leaving the upside of the destruction of one of the most powerful weapons against the first-world working-class - the culture war and partisan politics - gone.

Were this to disappear and all illusions of democracy gone, workers would have no choice but to divert their anger into action that actually undermines capital, using their ability to withhold labor-power. This would be further exacerbated by the fact that if others are doing something successfully, more will follow. Making the situation less hopeless and a clear path of true consciousness to prevail.

This isn't specific to Trump. If anything, Kamala would be an even better dictator by virtue of no one liking her, meaning even fewer workers would be enthralled in bourgeois politics.
