    I'd like to make it clear that I no longer personally agree with the final message in this video. I was naïve and mistaken on American politics.
    EDIT: I do not agree with political violence, I think my disagreements with the final message in the video are quite obviously not based on being pro-political violence suddenly.

      As a Greek, I have to say the Greek Guerilla War is really underrated (that is its original title. It was baptized "Civil" many years later, due to political correctness). It resulted in quite a lot of deaths, most of them including civilians by commies' raids. It caused so much hate that exists even today

    Franco ruled Spain for almost 40 years, and that makes him the dictator that has last for more time in power.
    He was kinda clever. The king of Morocco said he rather have a toothache than an interview with Franco. One time, he was speaking with him for almost four hours and, after that time, Franco said: look, what you are telling to me cant be possible, and if it can be possible, lets have dinner, Im hungry. Same happened with Hitler. Hitler tryed to convince franco to fight in the WWII, so they met one day. Franco arrived 3 hours after Hitler did, and despaired him so much, he make hitler say: OKAY DONT FIGHT, FUCK YOU.

Hitler and Franco were similar, is just that Hitler directly exterminated the source while Franco killed converted subverts who believe in state anarchy.

    The video is mostly accurate and really informative, but in my opinion, what really doomed Alfonso XIII's reign was his acceptance of Miguel Primo de Rivera's dictatorship from 1923 to 1930. He was a fascist dictator who came to power after a coup, but oddly enough decided to keep the king, Alfonso XIII, instead of becoming the sole leader of Spain. After Primo de Rivera stepped down in 1930, the king tried to mantain the status quo and named other dictators, but failed. He then decided to hold elections, and realising he had lost the support of the people in the major cities, he exiled himself without abdicating the throne in 1931.

    Read Mine Were of Trouble by Peter Kemp about a year ago. Incredible first-hand account of the war. Kemp was British and volunteered to fight for the nationalist side under Franco, and fought through 37-39. I believe he was with the Requetes, and then the Spanish Foreign Legion. It provided an insight into the war that not many are familiar with, and it truly captures the horror and chaos of that war.

    my great grandfather was a republican in the spanish civil war, I love that country and so did he. That war was a war for who he was not about communism or anarchism (he was neither) He fought in Madrid when the rest of the world wouldnt. he defended his home sometimes with bar none. recalling stories of him protecting a building from grenades by launching them back with a bed sheet. And even after all that the city fell and he was taken prisoner, but that wouldnt stop him, 3 times they tried to excecute him and three times he escaped, and in the end was able to be evacuated by american boats. This war is so important to me and my family, thank you for talking about it

He just suffered a wound on the head when faced some republicans trying to steal a goat or some animal, and after that some insults because he managed to live a good neutral life during the war and after that.

Right now most people have enough food and entertainment to satiate themselves, leaving disagreements to social media tirades.
