Seems like it should be the other way around. Shouldn't people go along with the guys providing all the tanks and planes, and not just say "help us do a thing you don't wanna do"?
Except this was literally Stalin providing the tanks and planes, to the elected left-wing government. It's like if Allende asked Castro to send Cubans with guns to protect him, and then a bunch of randos decide they'd rather just do a no unjust hierarchies while Pinochet was taking over and act surprised when they aren't treated like comrades or whatever.
