The Bolshevik Revolution was led entirely by educated intellectuals—professional revolutionaries rather than laborers—so none of the key 1917 leaders emerged from union leadership or long-term factory work, even though they mobilized workers to seize power.

Lenin was a university-trained lawyer and full-time Marxist theorist; Trotsky was a journalist, writer, and revolutionary intellectual; and Stalin, though without a university degree, was seminary-educated and worked primarily as an editor, theorist, and professional party organizer rather than as a laborer or union leader.

Weak sauce. University led vs university trained are two different vegetables.

Correct answer.

The Commie claim to represent workers has always been a joke.

“The issue is not the issue. The revolution is the issue.”

The Vanguard of the Proletariat steal everything that is not nailed down.
