Comment on unsure why we are surprised lol
orrk@lemmy.world 2 months agothe soviet did support the republicans, as far as the republicans were the “original” Spanish government, they imposed a lot of stipulations to their aid tho, stipulations that would allow soviet influence and later annexation of the region as most of its military being soviet supplied and having a large contingent of soviet “volunteers”

TIL. Thanks
Still: what do you mean “both of the revolutions”? Anarchist and bourgeois?
orrk@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Spain had 2 revolutions, the first fascist, the second anarchist, why do you think it had a bourgeois revolution? that requires some next level not knowing anything about Spain beforehand…

I didn’t think of the fascists as revolutionary so I was confused and asked. After you didn’t answer me the first time, I asked again. If that would have made sense to me, I wouldn’t have asked. Thanks anyway for using this opportunity to insult me.

You make claims about what happened during the Spanish Civil War, yet are upset when called out for not knowing who even participated? after having made claims as to the motives of a good deal of the people, somehow involved?
Also, since I didn’t actually insult you, but do want to live up to your expectations: “are you an idiot or do you just repeat everything you heard a tankie say without thinking”?
