Do you understand how this came decades later?

That doesn't matter, because we aren't arguing over what the peasants believes, but rather upon which side of the civil war would have been better for each respective country.

Absolutely they were worse. The Kolchak forces were little better than bandits.

The Soviets where bandits.

The Whites that fought the Reds were their own worst enemies. They looted, burned, and murdered the people they were supposed to be protecting.

I agree, but the Soviets did the same thing.

I looked into this and after I got an education, I wasn't surprised why the communists won again and again.

I get why they won, I just disagree that they should have won.

Anyways, our disagreements seem to boil down to a difference of perspective. I get where you're coming from, though. Thanks for being civil and taking the time to explain your point of view to me.
