There's no good or bad in the world, only we and they.

Dky,
That's not what the Revolution will be about. The Revolution will be about each worker emancipating himself and by doing so he will emancipate his brothers and sisters. Human being's self interest can be used to the benefit for all.

Henri,
You're absolutely right, but the French, and American revolutions were Bourgeoisie revolutions. The were started by the Bourgeoisie against the Monarch. These are the revolutions where the Capitalists emancipate themselves and the road to Communism starts. Without the Bourgeoisie revolutions, no Proletariat will be formed and without that class identity he will never realize his plight, and never be emancipated. Lucky for us that the path to Communism is an inevitable one. And the Capitalists have helped us by throwing the yoke of the monarch and they've setup the means of production, just waiting to be confiscated by the state.
To sum it up. Don't compare the French Revolution's barbarism and exploitation to a Proletarian Revolution. And, while there will be bloodshed, we are not the bourgeoisie.
