How is he seen in modern Spain? Is he considered a fascist?
Tyler Thomas
David Lopez
Bump
Wanna know
Noah Harris
Yep...
Eli Harris
No one?
Asher Cook
Am also curious!
Evan Davis
He was... he and his army consider himself as fascist.
Franco defended his interests and the interests of his people in the best way he could at a time when his country decided to choose which road to take at a crossroads.
I must say that I think he was an honorable man with a high sense of responsibility. Not very intelligent but wise.
Nicholas Harris
i mean its no secret he was a facist
Grayson Baker
Yes, he is
Thomas Peterson
Someone said that because he nationalized most businesses, that he was more of a leftist. translate.google.com
Cameron Williams
Can anyone give more info on this, please?
Ethan Baker
Didn't know about that but i will read.
I just can say there are 3 things that he belived:
GOD
FATHERLAND
KING
Benjamin Rivera
Yeah, i am not saying he was a leftist, but the guy treated it like because he privatized businesses, that Franco was a complete commie.
Nathaniel Williams
I think I got it...
He wasn't a commie, but as i said before he wasn't that smarth... he is the kind of soldier that up rank fighting on battlefield... good at war, bad economist just comited to return the power to the king. I must say that he did what he concider the "right choise" for keeping the power and destroy the spanish republic and their souporters.
Kayden Powell
Well he wasn't completely for the Spanish miracle, as he did get help from Opus Dei Technocrats. I guess that's why most people just call him conservative.
Asher Scott
I think conservative is an accurate term. Facism was just the tool.
Luis Mitchell
Alright, well the guy did have a Catalan flag so he may have exaggerated things to piss us off. Oh and i meant to say "he nationalized businesses" not privatize. Still though, you get the drift.
Justin Garcia
He's considered a fascist, as for how people feel about him, as with anything it depends on who you ask, I lived in the Basque Country for two years and they're mostly not find of him there
Bentley Roberts
He's considered a fascist but he was not actually a fascist after 1945.
That's carlists, a group of people which he backstabbed btw, not Franco.
Hunter Green
After 1945 i guess he could be called an authoritarian conservative, but most still consider him fascist. As for their neighbor, Portugal, i think Salazar could be called a fascist.
Carson Barnes
Catalan flag?
yep, i got what you meant.
Chase Allen
Poster who gave me the info.
David Brooks
Agree... also after 1945 was a difficult season to be fascist.
Lincoln Powell
He abolished the edict of Granada (which was the edict that forbade Jews and Moors to be in Spain), he sold us to the United States, betrayed Carlists and betrayed Falangists. For some reason he's considered a fascist and it's to modern Spain what Hitler is to Germany with the exception people in Spain believe the country is still being fucking run by Franco and Francoists and it's why we're fucked because no fascist movement will rise here because of this bullshit of being afraid of being called a Francoist.
Samuel Sanchez
Oh yeah...it sounds tendentious.
