Even slightly progressive organizations can never agree throughout history. The real Russian Revolution occurred in February 1917. The provisional government spent so much time squabbling among themselves that the Bolsheviks were able with little popular support, overthrow them and take over.

Little space is left in history for the well-intentioned Mensheviks who didn't appreciate the reality of the dangerous situation they were in.....blinded by their fascination for the convoluting discussions of arcane minutae of their "profound" ideological considerations...so content they were to be able to debate and not be killed by the Tsar's men that they achieved the inevitable.....they succeeded in killing off debate and they were killed themselves of by Lenin and the Bolsheviks.
