This is the small-man theory of history. The focus is on failed individuals
rather than social and historical processes. Looking at it historically, the
process is this: All the living, old Bolsheviks (plus Trotsky) turned out to be
spies and traitors during a decade of progress in the USSR, where they were
celebrated as heroes and to which they all had devoted decades of their lives
and suffered exile, imprisonment, and personal hardships. All of them, with the
exception of one. And when that person died, the USSR suffered a collapse into
capitalism.
Assuming that implausible story is true, where were the workers through all of
this? Who put them to sleep? What kind of system demobilized the working class
that won the Russian Revolution. What happened to their organizations? To the
soviets that they invented in 1905 and were supposed to get all the power in
1917.
Please.
