Hey all, I’ve been doing some (surface-level) research into the Black Army and their conflicts with the Bolsheviks, and it seems to me like they got kind of a raw deal. I’m not sure if it’s because of western views on anyone that had conflicts with the Red Army, but it seems like they genuinely were pushing for the working class and had good beliefs. The slaughter of Ukrainian peasants under Trotsky also doesn’t sit right with me.

Anyway, the point is this:

It is well past time for me to actually learn some history and read some theory. I’m still not quite sure where I stand as to whether I’m ML/Anarchist/etc, but left unity and a general societal shift is obviously needed. So can someone provide me with some literature? If I’m posting this in the wrong place please let me know as well.

Thank you.

I personally think this is something of a red flag.

Surely there must exist a more appropriate idiom to use here.
