Eh...some of the whites were not totally despicable though most of them were.

I mostly just root for them in the Civil War because they were the losers and were, as a group, remarkably absurd. There is kind of a romance for lost causes with absurd goals.

Whites were crappy, but it's hard to content that the world/Russia would not have been better off without Stalin.

Yep. The only Russians I ever liked were the Constitutional Democrats and they were pretty much dead by the time the Civil War got going.

At the time the reds without a doubt.
With hindsight the whites.

That's like blaming Wilson on the ACW.

Whites obviously. Just like in the Finnish civil war.

[Martinus]

Whites obviously. Just like in the Finnish civil war.

And the American Civil War?
