Marxism was compromised by the time Marx got in love with parliaments for obvious reasons . Lenin's sectarianism set the ground works of the silly regime and the state capitalist (his words not mine) economy. Western powers intervention and northern fleet incident brought the constant revolution doctrine . It went downwards from there .

At the end the Bolsheviks exterminated all their enemies including the Mensheviks who had a slightly different approach and when there is nothing to challenge a set ideology stagnation kicks in . See how modern neoliberals stagnated after 30 years without any opposition .
