The essentially forced the anarchists out of government, it didn't put them at odds with the republic. There wouldn't be a reason to oppose the republic until after the war

Sources you won't let me cite

So you don't know

anyway, it's been proven that the anarchists didn't have weapons and that's why falange crushed them.
as i tried to point out to rex the ENTIRE TIME.
my case rests now.
really stressed

A dual governance model existed

And yes

The fascists got overwhelming support from the Nazis in Germany

And mussolini

And it still took them years to win

Against an unfunded, untrained, horizontal force or militias

And general people

lol

So why would anarchists not support Republicans in the face of a greater reaction?

They did, hence not overthrowing the republic

Which is arguably one of the lessons to be learned from the civil war

@alines Not really.

It's a question that lingers

Should they have waited,

Or should they have used the fervor to go all the way

@alines The only thing you have proven is that you can autistically screech.

Except again. Sources you won't let me cite

And that foreign policy article

This is very simple info to find

Like

You call me lazy but are arguing from an entirely anecdotal position

And not letting me give you anything lol

You can upload sources but I won't read them personally atm not interested. I actually believe you on the topic.

Ok well then sure

Cause he's I'm not making this up

I think the anarchists definitely made mistakes

Primarily that they didnt go full on with the revolution

@Deleted User **prove they weren't disarmed, motherfucker**
killmonger and i have provided sources saying they were deprived by the republican govt.
put up or shut up

I also think that they shouldve squashed the marxists

Before they became a large problem

@alines You provided one source, that was from a bunch of commies on a blog.

Well the marxists literally killed and chased out

Anarchists and Trotskyist

Effectively ousting them from the country

Based on party lines

@Comrade Skeltal To be fair, the union would have collapsed if stalin hadn't done that.

What're you talking about

I think you should of cooperate with Marxists against the Fascism.

@Comrade Skeltal You are mentioning the purges, correct?

The marxists weren't there to cooperate fire

I'm talking about Spain

We are always there to cooperate.

@Comrade Skeltal Wait what? Trotskyists in spain?

Yes the militias were split up

Based on party line

This is our think. Cooperation.

Fire

The marxists in Spain

Were there to service the foreign policy of the USSR

@Firefly#9983 They did cooperate however, and they still got annihilated.

And prevent a radical revolution in Spain

They werent present to work with anarchists

Hence why they ousted them from government

And shot them and chased them out of the country

As the war was coming to a close

They were explicitly against certain strains of communism

And were trying to prevent a situation in which the western powers would fail to ally with them

Against Germany

In the coming war

At that point, what happened really didn't matter in spain, because at that point, the soviet union was starting to pull out, leadership was collapsing, and so was the military, it was natural at that point, that the communists would have turned on each other for their differences in their beliefs.

But it had been happening, hence the conditional support in aid

People were finding our marxists security forces miles behind the front lines were more armed than the actual troops fighting the war

What?

I think anarchists had much less power and resources. They had to submit to Marxists at that point because they had no opportunity by themselves. In a different situation I would agree they could fight for their cause. But in this situation submission and cooperative agreement with other progressive forces would be more beneficial for everyone. Instead they fought Republican and Marxists and failed catastrophically all together as losers.

They were this armed, explicitly as a means to reverse anarchist actions

And take their arms

It was only later they started shooting everyone as the war was clearly lost

And notice "the communists" weren't turning on eachother

The marxists were purging radical popular ideologies

@Firefly#9983 They would have lost decisively if they still did cooperate, afterall, they did cooperate in the first months of the civil war, but were still beaten time and time again by franco and the falange.

They werent beaten time and time again by Franco, it took years.

@Comrade Skeltal Is that to say that communism from the soviet union WASN'T radical?

And partiality on behalf of the embarking powers

@Deleted User They did provide some resistance.

In spain, no

It wasn't radical

@Firefly#9983 Some, sure.

They literally reverse anarchist collectivization

@Comrade Skeltal What do you mean?

I'm not talking about Russia at all

Even though in Russia they did the same thing

There was a period of counter-revolutionary action

On behalf of the marxists in Spain

What?

Doing things like passing laws

Marxist communists sure as hell are radical.

That limited and reversed past actions of collectivization

Rex, hush for one moment.

Hell no, I won't.

You're not listening and arguing something entirely besides the point

Nobody cares about what you think of the marxists, I'm arguing actions in spain.

@Comrade Skeltal I am arguing because I do not agree with what you are saying, I do not give a damn whether or not you care about it.

You're being stupid, This isnt something to "agree" Or "not" agree with.

I'm arguing the policies they enacted

@Comrade Skeltal Yes, it is.

No, no it isnt
