These were civillians, not soldiers. This is why H1tler put them in WORK camps, NOT death camps. We have been fed A LOT of propaganda about these times.

This video fails basic understanding of Marxism. The Bolsheviks did not want a "state with few private property rights" as an end goal. Marxism is a tool for the analysis of society through lenses such as dialectical materialism, as well as a revolutionary practice. The end goal of communists is a STATELESS, classless, moneyless society. Another omission the video makes is that not only did the red army have to fight off the white army, but also significant, and I mean SIGNIFICANT resistance from capitalist nations, multiple armies. It truly shows the power of an organised working class.
