I believe he was actually a Nationalist and fairly centrist but I am not sure.

I don't know much about him, but I don't think he was a Marxist - only a revolutionary who fought for his homeland.
Anyway, in every war there are too radical methods, even I would rather support Ireland for their freedom.

This will only give you a trite understanding of Collins, but if you can watch the films Michael Collins followed by the Wind that Shakes the Barely.

The former will show you Collins life, while the later is more revolutionary (i.e. those who fought alongside Collins, then fought against him).

Shouldn't the producers and writters of all the films promoting 'white guilt" and the 'evil' German villians be arrested for promoting incitment to racial hatred as well? I mean was good for the goose is good for the gander.
