Two things:

1) An all powerful state is the logical conclusion of anyone who believes the collective is more important than the individual.

2) There were many benevolent all powerful states during the 20th century, but every single powerful state that believed in collectivism turned into a murdering hell hole filled with poverty and suffering where the poorest people risked their lives to flee to countries that believed the individual is more important than the collective.
