The overthrow of the bourgeoisie can be achieved only by the proletariat becoming the ruling class, capable of crushing the inevitable and desperate resistance of the bourgeoisie, and of organizing all the working and exploited people for the new economic system.
I think that assumes a fundamental difference between the ruling class and the proletariat that I don't think exists. Not to the extent that the "proletariat ruling class" would relinquish power more gracefully than the current one.
I'd say phasing into a system with no ruling class would be the ideal. Yk the whole "once everyone's super no one is." Kinda thing.
