Summary

This quote suggests that revolution, which traditionally aimed to bring about significant change and challenge existing power structures, has become controlled and manipulated by two groups of people: bureaucrats and doctrinaires, who use their influence to shape the revolution according to their own agenda, and the masses who are disempowered and confused, lacking the clarity and capabilities to drive the revolution towards its original purpose. As a result, the true essence and transformative potential of revolution are often lost or compromised.
