Lenin turned out to be an autocrat who fought to have managerial control reinstated in the factories after they had been taken over by Soviets and various other ways he crushed the revolution. The Bolsheviks were a group of middle class people who wanted everything subservient to them. If you read anarchist history books like anarchosyndicalism by Rudolf rocker or books by Emma Goldman on the subject you might be intrigued.
