re: #215 Alyosha

Impressive. The counter-revolutionary struggle was state-sponsored for the most part. This isn’t a post-Nicolas Russia though.

Very true. It’s certainly entered Czech mythology though, and of course, myth has a power of its own.

Like the Long March of the Chinese Communists under Mao; in point of fact, it was one of the longest tactical retreats in military history, but how many are aware of that? I’ve met folks who think the Long March refers to the Communists taking power in 1949.
