The Spanish Civil War had awful crimes committed on both sides. However, Franco’s faction was more willing to just kill anyone who stepped out of line and didn’t give 2nd chances. I think Garbo (Spanish Spy who helped with Normandy) said that the Nationalists were cruel bastards, but they were easier to deal with. The Socialists, Anarchists, and Republicans were fucking insane and did their fair bit of raping.Many years ago, I used to wind up a pair of Spanish girls who I worked in a bar with.
We called them Baccara and tricked them into agreeing to be spit roasted and other such lovable laddish bar room humor.
One time after one of them had a bit of an “ay ay ay” moment, I said “ees worse dan Franco back”.
She didn’t understand, but my girlfriend of the time told her I was taking the piss, so she punched me in the ribs.
Glad that she didn’t understand that now!
If I remember right, a neural faction of women basically stopped giving aid to the Republican aligned factions after rapes, thefts, and conscription happened to them.
You were more likely to have some fat faggot with bitch tits on the Republicans say “Actually fascist child, that belong a to the collective.” When they rolled into town and you were paid with the promise of a utopia once the war was over. The Nationalists wrote IOUs.
