Engels' family owned a factory and he went to work there in a professional managerial role after 1848, and he's still upheld as the cofounder of the Marxist tradition because of his own theoretical contributions and how he supported Marx. Coming from a more privileged background doesn't make you a bad socialist, it's what you do with it that matters.
