If you don’t know what the different groups were, how can you possibly know what was in their hearts? We are talking about different ethnic groups and sects here: Pashtuns, Tajik, Hazara...

I have an idea on Afghani divercity.

That ethnic division is one of many reasons making the place a pot of snakes.

Still have no idea if it has something with a topic.

As it always happens in a poor muslim country the most radical group is to take an upper hand, so I won’t buy an idea if there could be something “moderate” instead of Taliban.

Soviet softcore communism was good for a society like that, being very unfriendly to religious extremes, and it wasn’t good to counter it supporting these groups later developed into Taliban.

Reds could have washed their brains from militant islamist crap to fail later like communists did worldwide leaving Afghanistan quite a peaceful post-Soviet craphole in a class of Tajikistan or something.
