In many ways conditions were worse after the Russian Revolutions than before.
Shortages of food and manufactured goods actually increased as production decreased. Peasant farmers were forced to sell their crops to the government under Lenin's "war communism" policy leaving them with barely enough to survive. Peasants soon lost incentive to grow more crops or hoarded what they did grow. Peasants who did this and were found out were exiled, imprisoned or executed.
Industrial output actually fell below the levels they had been at under the Tsar. Lenin recognized this and fearing that the Russian people would revolt against him and the Bolsheviks, instituted the New Economic Policy. It did little to help.
There was absolutely no political freedom since Lenin abolished all political parties other than the Bolshevik, later Communist, Party. Anyone voicing opposition or criticism of the way the Bolsheviks/Communists were running things was branded a counterrevolutionary and also exiled, jailed or executed.
All in all, the plight of the peasants and laborers got worse.

Redistribute it to serfs. A better distribution of property.
The battle cry of the Russian Revolution, particularly during the October Revolution of 1917, was "Peace, Land, and Bread." This slogan encapsulated the key demands of the Bolsheviks, appealing to the needs of soldiers seeking an end to World War I, peasants desiring land reforms, and workers wanting better living conditions. It became a rallying cry that unified various segments of the population under the revolutionary cause.
Both the Russian Revolution of 1905 and the Revolution of 1917 were driven by widespread discontent among the populace due to social, economic, and political grievances. In both instances, the autocratic rule of the Tsar faced opposition from workers, peasants, and intellectuals who demanded reforms and better living conditions. Additionally, military failures, particularly in wars, exacerbated public dissatisfaction and contributed to calls for change. Ultimately, both revolutions reflected a deep-seated desire for more democratic governance and social justice in a rapidly modernizing society.
The Tzar's Russian military in WWI (1914) was still feeling the negative effects from the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905. Russia was on the verge of revolution in 1905...and that revolution came to light in 1917...right in the middle of WWI. Therefore, the German army of WWI was stronger and better organized. The Russian Army was better experienced due to the Russian-Japanese war...but it was disorganized and demoralized due to it's pending revolution.

During the Russian Revolution, the people sought an end to autocratic rule, social inequality, and widespread poverty. They demanded political reforms, such as the establishment of a democratic government, and improvements in living conditions, including better wages and access to food. The working class, peasants, and soldiers were particularly focused on land reforms and workers' rights, driven by discontent with the existing regime and the hardships of World War I. Ultimately, the revolution aimed to create a more equitable society and address the grievances of the masses.
The Russian Revolution formed the USSR, the first Communism state. The USSR changed the world by proving that Communism could work. The USSR went to create a better world, although never achieved, it legacy will live on. P.S. We should revive the USSR
Marx was closely associated with the communist movement. His ideology was adopted by Russian dissidents such as Vladimir Lenin to convince the workers in Russia that they would be better off overthrowing the Tsarist regime and adopting a communist form of government. Marx had no direct role in the Russian Revolution because he had died before it took place.
One of the achievement of the Russian revolution is that it led to better administration of the civilians. The revolution also helped reduce inflation and the agrarian shortages of fuel, grains and food.
