Again, presumptions.

You don't know if they aren't or are tankies, would a tankie like lenin?

where are your reports that the soviets did provide "EVERYTHING" directly to the anarchists?

Directly or indirectly, what is the difference?

@alines Restating what firefly said, they sent repairmen, tanks, soldiers, planes, medical assistance, intelligence assistance, and more.

to the republicans, for them to later refuse this aid to the anarchists

that's the difference, firefly

Knowing anarchists they might as well sell guns for food.

Why give them aid

@Firefly#9983 True, the anarchists didn't do shit.

no, of course not, they didn't build schools or militias, none of that.
o, but obviously they did

What would be the reason to continue aid anarchists?

@alines Who is "they"?

Rip when people pretend to know about the Spanish Civil War

the anarchists

@alines They didn't build anything then?

He was being sarcastic, but you knew that.

no, they did, i was only mocking what you said

Why is everything in this chat an exercise in futility :l

@Comrade Skeltal What would be the reason to continue aid anarchists?

I dont know what you're talking about

The only aid sent to spain came from Mexico and the USSR

@alines Yhea, it is not like the schools operated for less than a few months, or that the milita's got wiped out almost instantly by the falange.

The aid from the USSR was conditional

It didn't go to anarchists if they could help it

We are talking how Soviets helped Republican, Republican helped anarchists but then stopped.

It went to moderates and marxists

Particularly those assault guards still left behind the front line

And it went to them on a basis of opposing anarchism

wew

How do we know this condition was present?

This was during and after the marxists effectively removed the anarchists from positions of decision making in the republic

What are you talking about

>The aid from the USSR was conditional

Because it was their foreign policy statement for one,

And for two,

@Comrade Skeltal The anarchists were extremely incompitent, this shows when you look at how bad they got beaten by the falange.

Where can we read about that?

You have first hand accounts from Orwell, and various studies about it

Chomsky did the pieces "objectivity in liberal scholarship"

On it
