If the bourgeoisie overthrow the nobles, and the workers overthrow the bourgeoisie... then who, if possible, overthrows the workers?

Just thought of that.

Either Chuck Norris or Eutrusca and his army of mutant aardvarks.

Unpaid housewifes of course

Josef Stalin overthrew the workers, then the Nobles overthrew him, it quickly goes round in a pointless circle... just like all human activity.

Untill we get overthrown by Robots of course...

I'll say the prostitutes. Everybody loves prostitutes!

Nah, the current powers that be of Russia are the Bourgeoisie again, not the nobles.

Little known fact: the word "overthrow" came into the world when Chuck Norris literally overthrew Mezameshamebnob IV of Egypt, hurling him into a different time zone.

Regardless of who overthrows whom, the same classes almost always exist. If you eliminate the nobility, the upper echelon of the middle class moves up into that role and becomes the new nobility. Sometimes the upper echelon of the lower class will then move up to become the lower echelon of the middle class, but not always. Most of the middle and lower classes remain precisely where they were.

It is possible, however, to eliminate the middle class. North Korea, for example, appears to have been very successful at this, allowing for a completely warped definition of "successful". This allows the nobility to remain safe in their role.

Hey! I thought that was Vin Diesel! :confused:

Maybe in the '90s, but I would say that today that not a lot of power lies with the petty capitalists that make up the bourgeousie, economic power is quite clearly in the hands in the much more select 'oligarchs', case in point, the Leviathan Gazprom.

The nobles. :)

Typically themselves. After the inevitable stagnation of a communal society, a power figure riding on a claim of being "for the people" will arise, eventually to be established as dictator/despot. This will happen all over the world, eventually reducing mankind to warring tribes, probably equipped with spears and knives, and living out of tents and caves. The cycle will have restarted all over again.

The only way to stop this incredibly destructive cycle is for democracy and capitalism to take hold and stick around. They can prevent the recycling of history.

Fish!

Sea-man's plans must not me revealed, lest the bourgeousie find the location of his hidden colony of Sea-men!
