Actually, very few Russians wanted the Romanoffs dead. Lenin ordered their execution to prevent their rescue by advancing “White Russian” troops and their subsequent potential propaganda use as the symbol of the Russian nation to unite the people against the Bolsheviki, who were a initially a tiny minority that had exploited the chaos to seize power...
That is an interesting point. It may be difficult to distinguish between the active or involved members of that society those who merely disliked the Romanovs, wished them simply to be gone or in fact murdered. I limited my comment to "disliked" to avoid the issue.
My point, of course, is the lesson currently advanced is that the murders were the act of a desperate nation wishing to throw off the burden of evil government. Today's lesson is incomplete, as you point out, since the murders were primarily the result of brutal political exploitation. Moreover, the lesson is applicable only of one has a rational basis for concluding Trump truly is evil.
