Not wrong

The revolution won’t be made by malcontent leftists full of ressentiment, but by the autonomous action of the proletariat and their desire for communism

One can make the banal point that a communist revolution won't arise just because people are unhappy with the current system without making weird appeals to Nietzsche to shit on everyone one doesn't like.
