I'm tempted to agree with this. Even if the tsar were not killed, he already abdicated and the monarchy wasn't so popular in Russia. There were a handful of powerful generals and warlords who did terribly sharing power IOTL even with a single existential threat, so ITTL things would be even worse. That being said I don't think a warlord era would last as long in Russia as it did in China because the country is well-industrialized and has more modern institutions to reunify the country with.Russia become like china
The tsarist rule was much worse , at least during the Soviet era , Russians farmers lived better and their kids hadn't died from diseace , Russians words not mine .Over 30 million people aren't starved, shot, worked to death, left to die from exposure, deported etc by Stalin.

Not for Ukrainian peasants under Stalin, for sure. After Stalin, that is quite possible.
This ?If the Bolsheviks had lost the Russian Civil War which of the many parties would have won?
The problem with a question like that is that no single White faction had enough support to beat them. So, you have to wank up one of them, and whichever one gets lucky is the one that wins.If the Bolsheviks had lost the Russian Civil War which of the many parties would have won? Would Russia have simply remained divided indefinitely?

How would a warlord Russia fare against Nazi Germany. If Russia is weak and divided then we could have a Nazi victory on our hands.
