The Complete History of The Spanish Civil War

Ойын-сауық

The Spanish Civil War is one of the most famous events of the 20th century yet it is also by far one of the most misunderstood. Most people know next to nothing about it and the little they do know is just propaganda bites from the time from the losing side whom had greater access to the world media. In this video I will be giving the complete story of the Spanish Civil War from its early origins all the way until its end so that the full picture can actually be grasped. Was it fascism against the democratically elected government or was it something else entirely? The truth is that the war and even the sides that took part are extremely complicated and only able to be explained at length. World War 2 is simple and easy to understand, the Spanish Civil War is not. I will attempt to change that.

    Imagine, I considered myself a leftist a decade ago, and the "No pasaran" rhetoric is still, to this day, very much repeated among "the left". They still consider this a watershed moment of the Communist/Socialist/Anarchist cause, still to this day squabbling which faction was more important in their struggle. Kinda funny.

    The socialists didn't do that for humanitarian reasons, nor as an expression of their existential hatred of Catholicism. They simply did it because so many of the foreign socialists were ethnically Jewish (although not actively so, and definitely not religiously). To a large extent the socialist Republic was an effort to impose foreign ideas on Spanish society, and they didn't want to give any of their foreign advisors the idea they weren't welcome.

And today, anyone who even questions the Civil Rights Act is labeled a “Confederate Supporter.” Even idiotic Republicans play into it too by trying to say “the Democrats are the real racists,” because of the Southern Democrats. It’s actually very similar to how the Nazis are seen as the metaphor for all evil in the accepted narrative. Now I’m not a Southerner and I don’t support Southern independence but the way the Confederacy or the Civil War in general is portrayed is definitely not in a fair analysis or one that favors the South.

    I'm an american but was stationed in Southern Spain while in the Navy. I always loved history and would often ask people about their opinion on franco (when I was comfortable with that person and they were to me, you dont talk about him in public even if you like him). My impression was 70% like and appreciated what he did for spain, but they were typically older. The younger generation are the ones who despise him. But just like in America, young generations often forget the lessons learned from the past. Thats why its still somehow hip/cool to like socialism/communism despite countless examples of why they're bad. You can literally have people from former soviet states or china tell you how bad it was/is and you'll still get young far left americans telling them they're wrong lol.

    I can't thank you enough for this video. My grandparents lived during the civil war, and had to endure the terror inflicted by the republicans in Barcelona. My grandparents were deeply religious, like most of the decent people in Spain by that time, and had to hide a few priests at home from the anarchists who were out looking to kill the clergy. It was hard, food was very scarce, being rationed, but they shared it with the different priests that came and went, hiding from the atrocities. What hurts me the most is seeing how history is taught today in schools, books, and TV, where Franco was the bad guy, and the republicans were the "freedom fighters". They were monsters.

    So were Nationalists though, the white terror killed more people than the republicans ever did. It also left a lot of children as orphans-- is it not sensible to recognise that both sides were extremely radicalised eg. tit for tat killings? Schools don't paint republicans as freedom fighters, they had their issues like ineffective collectives, burning of churches, which were definitely wrong. But they were in a sense more justified since Spain had always been under oppressive, monarchist rule (where religion was ingrained into the government). The nationalists only comprised of elites trying to keep their power.

    It’s one of the many reasons why I don’t trust any “modern” history writer on the Spanish Civil War unless they’re willing to give Franco a fair shake rather than succumbing to their emotional, cultural Marxist driven ideological hysteria. Since most aren’t honest enough to do this it can make finding the truth they’ve hidden and willfully ignore somewhat difficult to track down but when you find it it’s all the more rewarding because of the effort it took to unearth it and the satisfaction you feel from finding it in spite of their petty attempts as the system’s gatekeepers to keep it from you.

    Even as protestant it's horrifying when I learned about all this a few years ago. The Wars of Religion were long over and clearly that was the godless commies, he mentioned it but left out how the "republicans" also went out of their way to murder managers and business owners along with the clergy. Demons the whole lot of them! Also in the movie Casablanca the character of Rick, played by Bogey, was said to have helped in the Spanish Civil War on the "right" (see liberal) side. (((They))) were pushing their narrative even back then.

    This is Reprehensible. I didn't know that and that's sad. Franco wasn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but that's a hundred steps too far. He did what had to be done, though he could have handled a few things differently. Personally, if I could do so in the Afterlife, I'd like to sit down with him and hear his side of the story. He deserves to be heard before being condemned.

Think about this why not bring back the monarchy or even democracy sometime during his tenure? Bc at some point, he did not believe in those as viable options. In his eyes, he was the only man equipped to make spain great again. It was vanity. Bringing back democracy meant the possibility of bringing back options like socialism that was unallowable

    It's obscure outside of the Spanish-speaking world. In Spain everyone knows about it and Latin Americans are somewhat familiar with it because of the left-wing republican refugees our governments received after Franco won the war. My country (Mexico) never recognized Franco's government and severed all contact with Spain for 3 decades, until the end of Franco's regime.

    Living here in Spain the politics of the civil war are still very much at play. If anyone keeps an eye on Spanish modern politics they will know all about the recent and ongoing 'amnistía' situation. You will see Communist and Falange graffiti and flags hanging from windows with political slogans written on them. Some towns still have Falange marches. And Spain is the only country in the EU with politicians/ministers who are openly members of a Communist party. And of course, there are still so-called Anarchists living in the squat-slums of Cataluña. People here still know the real history because it's still so relevant and within a generation since the end of the Franco era, but the amount of biased writings of read on the civil war from so-called historians is ridiculous. They will go to great lengths to cover up and deflect from the Communist/Soviet aspects of the conflict. So well done, sir, for putting the effort into creating this film.

    Francisco Franco, despite his tactical brilliance in battle and politics, disappointed many with his decision to allow the Anjou-Bourbon Carlos to reclaim the throne of Spain and transformed it into a decadent liberal-democratic monarchy. This move seemed to negate all the accomplishments of the nationalist groups. Even though Franco marginalized the Carlists and co-opted the Falangists, his failure to save or intentionally allow the execution of José Antonio Primo de Rivera was a missed opportunity to create a more stable future for the state.

    OH. MY. SCIENCE. That was what went through my head when after i watched this video. This is not a video, but celestial, slowburn, spine tingling, bone chilling gemerald from the gemmiest mines of the Moroccan coast. I watched it again and again, trying to understand the deeper meaning of this philosophical and intellectual Kino. You, sir, have produced such a gemmy piece of art that it puts all others to shame. Even, yes even, after my wife's BVLL forbade me from watching your videos, I got a vasectomy, so now I can view this beautiful video again and again. I heckin' LOVE science and Franco! This is an absolute TRVTHNVKE that dispels all myths and lies about the Soynish Civil War. It will be remembered by generations to come as the most comprehensive yet informative and incredible artwork and video essay about this war. Billions must make video essays and convert to Falangist Catholicism. You sir, have won the internet!
