The ideas of Marx and Engels did not acheive much of a following until after the Russian Revolution. From the 1890's onwards their influence steadily grew but the names of Marx and Engels did not become world famous until after the Bolsheviks took state power in Russia. Their ideas gained so much influence and still have so much influence because they present the only sound alternative to capitalism, and today conditions are such that there is no other path for humanity but the paths of "socialism or barbarism" to use Luxemburg's phrase.

In the 1800s, skilled labor unions and craft workers frequently protested the hiring of unskilled factory workers. They argued that the influx of unskilled laborers undermined wages and working conditions, as these workers were often willing to accept lower pay. Additionally, some nativist groups opposed the hiring of immigrants, who were often unskilled, fearing that they would take jobs from native-born citizens. These protests reflected broader tensions related to class, skill, and immigration during the industrialization of the United States.
Oskar Schindler's factory, known for its role in employing Jewish workers during the Holocaust, was valued at approximately 4 million Reichsmarks at the time of World War II. However, the factory's true worth is often measured by its historical significance and the lives saved rather than its monetary value. Schindler's efforts ultimately saved around 1,200 Jews from deportation and certain death. Today, the factory stands as a museum, symbolizing the impact of individual actions during a dark chapter in history.
Yes, Schindler's factory, which produced munitions during World War II, did manufacture bombs that were often duds. Oskar Schindler, the factory's owner, intentionally employed various methods to sabotage the production of effective weaponry, aiming to protect his Jewish workers from deportation and death. By producing faulty munitions, he helped ensure that the bombs would fail in combat, ultimately saving lives.
During the late 1800s and early 1900s, factory workers often faced harsh and unsafe working conditions. They typically endured long hours, often working 12 to 16 hours a day, with minimal breaks and little pay. The work environment was frequently hazardous, lacking proper ventilation, safety equipment, and sanitation, leading to high rates of injuries and illnesses. Child labor was also prevalent, with young children subjected to the same grueling conditions as adults.
Child factory workers, like all workers, were supervised.
