AHC: Have the Whites winning the Russian Civil War result in something far worse than the Soviet Union

Have them form a reactionary authoritarian regime that regards all the Russian peasants as subhumans to be put down at the merest hint of insolence let alone defiance and reinstate serfdom. the Jews are seen as being behind the Bolsheviks. You get to blend the Gulags and Death camps into one even worse horror show. Maybe throw in a drive to modernize Russia that sees the serfs chucked off their land as farms are merged into larger more economic units and those serfs then being worked to death building shiny, largely useless, new infrastructure and monuments to the glory of the new regime. Basically all the 'greatest hits' of every terrible regime from WWII onward.

Sorry, but no, just no. There were far too many Russian peasants around to even try to attempt this. Such a government would be lucky to last a week.

Yes I do not think any of the whites would support this anyway, not even the most extreme, so if someone tried this the army would just coup them.

Is Orthodox Christianity really worse then Communism? That seems like a stretch. With Stalin in charge, it could be pretty bad, but

Yeah especially since the peasants by and large were loyal as opposed to the proletariat...
