Wilhelm II
Otto Bismark
Answer
Bebel was influenced by Karl Marx's ideas of class struggle and dialectical materialism. Marx believed that history was driven by the conflict between the working class and the capitalist class. The working class, which produced all the wealth, was exploited by the capitalist class, which took most of the profits. Bebel agreed with Marx that the working class would eventually overthrow the capitalist class and establish a socialist society.
