in particular reference to that meme, people are only wanting to make the assertion that Biden IS a fascist, because it's not particularly helpful to finally accept that Trump is one, if you also don't think that the rest of the American political establishment isn't, and then are going to use the fascist label to then badger people into voting for Joe "architect of the Iraq War and the 1994 Crime Bill" Biden

I'm not happy about killing kids, but as any usurper can tell you, mercy to a child can lead to a civil war that kills millions. You think they wouldn't have found some Hapsburg to marry to Anastasia and then lead a "reclaimation" of Russia?

It's genius how they've managed to avoid civil war by executing teenagers. If they didn't do it, the war would have probably lasted for several years and resulted in several millions of deaths. I'm so glad it never happened!

yeah, if only the noble provisional government had continued to feed millions into the meatgrinder for no reason the reactionaries would certainly not have started a civil war. one weird trick to avoid rightwing coups, the protofascists hate it.

and after all, what are the lives of millions of dirty peasants worth when compared to even one royal? i sure know whose death i'd spend my time getting outraged about

im sure theres an army of people making definitely good faith posts and dozens of movies and writing 100 year memorial articles about each and every peasant child killed during the romanovs reign, its just random sampling bias that weve all been hearing about this particular one our entire life and definitely not reflective of some sort of main character of history ideology that treats the lives of the privileged as more important, real, individual and conscious than the rest

"well sure these armies were led by arch-reactionaries who started the civil war, outlawed and persecuted everyone even suspected of being a socialist, undid all socialist reforms in the areas they controlled, spent half their time conducting pogroms against jews and mass murders of workers and were generally so horrible that even their backers in the west had to beg them to tone that poo poo down, but have you considered that the bolsheviks shot this one family???"

To quote Lenin on who was responsible for the civil war.

'To all accusations of starting the civil war we say, yes. We have openly proclaimed what no other government could ever proclaim. The first government in the world that can openly speak about the civil war is the government of the workers, the peasants and the soldiers'.

(feel free to make a meme where a soyboy white officer says to Chad Lenin that he started the civil war, and Lenin says, yes)

aren't y'all talking about two separate incidents - between the Bolsheviks revolting against the Provisional Government; and the White Army (and its various, various, various other allies) invading what was already Soviet Russia?
