Not that I have anything against Rosa Luxemburg. She was brave, smart and had some good ideas. She was just a poor marxist and in reality would of served both herself and marxism better if she would of took her ideas as what they really were... a new philosophy.  She would be a very interesting force in politcs today and it's sad that she was forced to tie herself to men that didn't hold her same beliefs and often ended up having her agendas highjacked.  It's very much a shame how she died, even though she rejected the revolution.  A crime really.

Anyone who thinks that Marx and Engels rejected violence as a means to attain the communist world clearly wasn't being intellectually honest.

She wanted a communist party to win, take over and use the system to replace the cast system.  Unlike pretty much every other marxist who wanted to just outright uproot the political system.  Modern Marxists have followed her path... but modern marxists aren't anymore believers in Marx philosphy then Modern Republicans are of Lincolns.
