I replied to nathan's tweet on lenin and bolsheviks in this thread for anyone interested, which includes a primer on primary source evaluation and analysis at the end https://twitter.com/zei_squirrel/status/1291265003476135937
I also link to this thread there, which includes a list of literature on the russian revolution from a variety of perspectives that you should read if you want a well-rounded view on the subject https://twitter.com/zei_squirrel/status/1274328723165253632
