It's actually very interesting that all existing Marxist revolutions occurred in countries that were largely agrarian/semi-feudal economies, contrary to Marx's prediction of needing a well-developed proletariat. IIRC he did mention at some point the possibility of Russia as a special case with an alliance between the peasantry and the proletariat, but I don't think that was really expanded on until Lenin (as you say).
even the more successful anarchist/non marxist revolutions happen outside the core (Catalunia, EZLN, etc.) and also did involved the peasant/rural populations. i think it has to do with the way the proletariat classes in the core are closely related to the imperial spoils, like in that slammer meme i like posting about england, the english class can be made to go against it interests as long as the treats flow
IIRC the EZLN emerged partly from previous Marxist groups so I'm sure their analysis is materialist. I think almost every revolutionary group after Marx adopted a materialist analysis even if they weren't Marxists because it's genuinely baffling not to.
Marx failed to consider the JDPON.
