tbf it might be about how much more of a disaster the 20th century would have been without the Soviets.
Edit: Rough summary (I watched at 2x speed and didn’t focus too much on the specifics): Trotsky takes power from Kerensky by electoralism, the Whites win the civil war ousting Trotsky then invade Atatürk’s Turkey for some reason, Russia descends into a fascist state under Kolchak and Germany turns left instead.
So literally just Russia and Germany swapping roles in WW2.
“Kolchak turns into a dictator. A wave of antisemitism engulfs the country and thousands of Jewish families are exiled, or worse.”
He also says
“What would a Ukraine that never experienced Stalin’s Holodomor look like?”
despite earlier mentioning famines during Kolchak’s reign. He did mention the White Terror though and said it was much worse than the Red Terror.
“In our timeline right-wing movements owed a lot their existence due to the fear of rising Bolshevikism [sic]. But with a dictatorial Russia, that is highly unlikely.”
From the little I’ve watched of them, they seem like standard libs really. And this video lines up with that IMO. (See my edited comment for a summary.)

How do the Soviets losing in Russia make the SDP not betray the left in Germany?
It’s barely gone in to, this is pretty much it:
Lmao.
'Look what you made me do' but a history book
What no materialism does to a mf
This is the same as online fascists going "why I left the left" because someone was mean to them online
lol, lmao.
Thinking the bolsheviks created fascism by being so scary
Its alternatehistoryhub so most likely not but I have
