By class traitor I don't mean a fed or infiltrator. You don't have to go out of your way to denounce leftist ideas or stop the left. You just have to have class interests directly in conflict with workers and the poor. You can let your factory unionize, and take less money. But would you choose to be that factory owner if it meant your current situation improved significantly?
I don't know what I would choose because I have no hopes of owning capital. I would love to quit my job and be free to just own stuff and make money off it. But then I would have to reckon that with my beliefs. I guess you could just accept you can't be a leftist and volunteer for the wall should the day come.
the idea of 'pure' leftism with this innate untaintedness to it just gives me real Christian morality vibes, I do not like
well, it's all about class
if you're not actually becoming a member of the bourgeoisie or a cop you're probably fine

obviously some bourgeoisie will be good class traitors too
Brusilov supported Bolsheviks more out of patriotism. Better examples of aristocrats supporting Bolsheviks due to ideological reasons would be Bonch-Bruyevich brothers - radio engineer and general; general Alexander von Taube, who basically built the Red Army in Siberia, was captured by Whites, refused to join them and died in prison; Georgy Chicherin who became the first People's Commisar of Foreign Affairs; Alexandra Kollontai and many others.
Anglowiki article about von Taube was 100% written by some White apologist.
