But Rosa Luxemburg was a marginal figure to the
mainstream of Social Democracy!
what?? she may not have had a mass following (the way Kautsky did) but
she was important for people like Lenin or Kautsky to argue against.
(Did Edward B have a mass following outside of the party apparatus?)
Further, there's nothing that indicates that rank-and-file people in
the German Social Democratic Party agreed with Kautsky. Further, K
himself was better tha the stereotype.
