They were the people in power. No different than those in power in Ukraine right now.
A homeland is much more than a home government. It is your peoples culture, your families, your businesses. Like I said in my post, they may be unintentionally on the side of the bad guy, but they are protecting their homeland and therefore theyre heroic, no matter how you feel about it politically.Look up what the word heroic means
So, the people who fought for the bolshevichs, who were Russian, were heroic?
The communists that fought for Castro, heroic?
Were Mao's fighters, who were Chinese, heroic?
Sort of. But they are also not fighting for their homeland. They are from a foreign power (Jews/CIA in a lot of cases) fighting for a terrible ideology. And even if it was homegrown, they are not fighting for their homeland, they’re fighting for their ideology.That goes beyond the scope of my post. Though they fought and died for their beliefs. They did not cower away when the bullets were flying. They marched in on the front lines and died for their cause. That is somewhat heroic, as in brave/ courageous. It is not necessarily well-intentioned or righteous. It is not heroic in the sense that they are fighting for a noble cause. But once again, my post referred to fighting for your homeland, not against it.
