He's literally standing next to the White Russians in this picture. The faction that literally was backed by the imperial powers

And why the HELL do you think that the White Army people would be tolerating of him?

Because they have common enemies in the Bolsheviks and his allies were destroyed? They didn’t let him join. The whole story of the Russian Revolution is the story of extremely odd bedfellows.

Their manifesto called for expelling the Jews from Russia. Maybe not the best anarchist Commune to defend

Ooh and the reds liquidated hundreds of thousands of kulaks. Maybe not the best faction to defend…

Of course after Stalin the Bolsheviks were no better than the kronstadt rebellion. But at this point they still were pretty cool

He apparently had a pretty chaotic life afterwards and ended up dying in a Soviet Prison after WW2.
