Was Franco a psychopath?>In his famous interview with the American journalist Jay Allen, a few days after the uprising began, Franco told him: “I will save Spain from Marxism at any price… Soon, very soon, my troops will have pacified the country and soon all this will seem like just a bad dream.” And when Allen replied: “Does that mean you will have to shoot half of Spain?” a smiling Franco answered: “I said at any price.”
>send in the moors to rape the women o algoyeah sounds pretty much like a psyopath to me, also had a BBC fetish apparently
>>18440625maybe he understood the fact that the human race is an abstraction because humans are in competition the same as animal specie are in nature, so everything is allowed when facing other humans in wartime
>>18440625Well yeah. You have to be insane or evil to oppose Socialists aka the good guys.
So he wanted to pacify the country; a strange kind of psychopathy...
>>18440650>we did it Patrick, we pacified the country
>>18440708>>we did it Patrick, we pacified the countryMy advice: more serious history books and fewer degenerate cartoons for toddlers. You are welcome.
>>18440625Implying marxoid states aren't obsessed with persecuting "counterrevolutionaries" too
>>18440626>Giving left wing Spanish women what they voted for is bad or something...
>>18440719Spain was poor as SHIT during his reign. If the world didn't have an economic boom during francoist rule, we would't have scumbags cocksucking the mono ball gnome
>>18441219Well this goes for Japan and South Korea as well.
>>18440626>>send in the moors to rape the women o algoThat was Queipo joking; Franco despised him (and viceversa).
>>18441219>Spain was poor as SHIT during his reign. If the world didn't have an economic boom during francoist rule, we would't have scumbags cocksucking the mono ball gnomeHe did not reign... And your mockery of his war wounds and physical characteristics defines you, not him. In fact, his image is strengthened because, despite all those handicaps, he achieved what he did (more honor to him).When the Civil War ended, Spain was a wasteland. Not a backward country: a country torn to shreds. Without gold (stolen by the Republic and handed over to the Soviets), without industry, with empty fields, devastated cities, and a starving population. It was the perfect image of disaster. And yet, thirty years later, many of them internationally isolated, that same Spain was the ninth largest industrial power in the world. A miracle? No. Franco. Few leaders can say they left a country a thousand times better than they found it.
>>18440625>Was a dictator a psychopath?Gee, idk anon.
>>18441358Holy shit you sound like such a pathetic faggot, the kind of man who would try and suck Franco off just for him to kill you for being a faggot. I am Spanish, Franco is trash and nowadays we are still fixing and healing all the evil shit he did.
>>18441358>And yet, thirty years later, many of them internationally isolated, that same Spain was the ninth largest industrial power in the world.Bullshit. I don't know why Francoists still believe this. Spain didn't make it to the top 10 during the Franco dictatorship even though it had consistently had a top 10 GDP historically - precisely until Franco and his henchmen destroyed the country. This can be easily looked up in the Maddison project and IMF data.And the international isolation thing isn't a flex either. Spain was isolated BECAUSE of the Franco regime. The postwar famine, the malnourished generation and mass emigration were a direct consequence of Francoist mismanagement. Spain didn't rejoin the international community or stop starving until the USA dumped a crapload of humanitarian aid and the Stabilisation Plan was implemented. That's 2 decades of misery and oppression for no reason other than Franco being addicted to power.Seriously, why are Francoists such pea-brained cucks? I'm a godless disgusting commie pinko and I could make better arguments FOR Franco than the average facha.
>>18441435>I am Spanish, Franco is trash and nowadays we are still fixing and healing all the evil shit he did.By giving citizenships to 500,000 illegals! Enjoy your socialist shithole retard.
>>18440625>Ask retarded hypothetical question>Get (less) retarded answer in return
>>18441461It's an engagement question. You have to make thread OPs like that to get (You)s. Are you a newfag?
>>18441465I was referring to the interview he quoted.
>>18441436>Bullshit. I don't know why Francoists still believe this. Spain didn't make it to the top 10 during the Franco dictatorship even though it had consistently had a top 10 GDP historically - precisely until Franco and his henchmen destroyed the country. This can be easily looked up in the Maddison project and IMF data.I said ninth industrial power, not GDP, you smartass. You want to talk about GDP? Tenth place under Miguel Primo de Rivera's dictatorship (1930) until the Reds wrecked the country in '36 and gave away the gold to the Soviets for nothing. With Franco, we reached twelfth place (above Canada), and with Pedro the Gravedigger, in 2026, we're in fifteenth place. Better arguments, he says...

>>18440650>So he wanted to pacify the country; a strange kind of psychopathy...Honestly true."Pacify" is generally used by a foreign conquerer in subduing his new subjects. Not the language you'd expect from a proclaimed nationalist "saving" his nation from his confused compatriots.Franco does look quite syrian...
>>18441515>Moorish rape gangs good because number go up o algxLatinx Americans should not be permitted to pretend to be Spanish.
>>18440625Yes, but the nationalists were still the good guys relatively speaking.
>>18441515>I said ninth industrial power, not GDP, you smartass. Which is still a bullshit factoid since industrial development was well underway in the 1920s and 1930s with companies like Hispano-Suiza expanding internationally, and scientists like Blas Cabrera or Severo Ochoa doing groundbreaking research. Fascist traitors made sure to reset all progress instead of improving. And "ninth industrial power" means absolutely nothing since Spain was still a developing country in late Francoism where illiteracy and child labour were 3rd world tier, even compared to other poor European countries. Haiti was one of the main exporters of human plasma in the 1970s ffs, don't expect Haitians to be proud of that.>You want to talk about GDP? Tenth place under Miguel Primo de Rivera's dictatorship (1930) until the Reds wrecked the country in '36 and gave away the gold to the Soviets for nothing. Muh Moscow gold has already been meme'd into oblivion and debunked into oblivion to waste any time explaining it on /his/. You're welcome to Google muh Moscow gold.>With Franco, we reached twelfth place (above Canada), and with Pedro the Gravedigger, in 2026, we're in fifteenth place. Are you seriously implying that rapidly industrialising countries with large populations such as India, Brazil or South Korea are expanding their economies faster than developed industrial countries (Sweden, Belgium, Netherlands etc) because the latter are worse than Franco? Do you really not understand the process of industrialisation? Also Spain was 13th place in 1970 between Australia and Mexico and 11th place in 1975 between Brazil and India and never caught up to Canada until long after Franco's death, but whatever floats your boat.I really wonder why Francoists keep repeating the same mantras. Next you'll tell me "at least we aren't Cuba".
>>18441551See>>18441354
>>18440626this >>18440990he was giving them what they voted for, after Franco died and Spain became socialist they immediately opened the borders to africa
>>18441684>I was merely giving orders
>>18440625>“Does that mean you will have to shoot half of Spain?” a smiling Franco answered: “I said at any price.”You can't be a great man of history if you don't think like this.
>>18441672>Which is still a bullshit factoid since industrial development was well underway in the 1920s and 1930s with companies like Hispano-Suiza expanding internationally, and scientists like Blas Cabrera or Severo Ochoa doing groundbreaking research.Exactly, thanks to the rule of Miguel Primo de Rivera (1923-1930).>>18441672>Fascist traitors made sure to reset all progress instead of improving.You did. In 1931, the republic arrived and the reds started acting like fools and squandering the prosperity they had inherited.>>18441672>And "ninth industrial power" means absolutely nothing since Spain was still a developing country in late Francoism where illiteracy and child labour were 3rd world tier, even compared to other poor European countries.You wish... In 1975, Spain's per capita income was 80% of the average of the nine EEC countries at the time (United Kingdom, France, West Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Denmark). The 2026 average with respect to those nine EU countries is 68%. Go tell your stories somewhere else. Literacy in 1935 (peak Republic): 65%Literacy in 1975 (peak Franco): 95%And child labor was prohibited before the age of 14 (just as it is, for example, in the United Kingdom today).>>18441672>Muh Moscow gold has already been meme'd into oblivion and debunked into oblivion to waste any time explaining it on /his/. You're welcome to Google muh Moscow gold.Debunked, he says... No historian dared to say that ever (although some tried to justify that indisputable historical fact as it suits them).>>18441672>Are you seriously implying...You're the one who brought up the GDP (and apparently the type that suits you), not me.
>>18441440Sanchez didn't do that, chuds are so easy to propagandize
>>18441802>Sanchez didn't do that, chuds are so easy to propagandizeRegularizing and granting work and residence permits (with the rights that entails) to illegal immigrants is the first step to that final goal. Even our weak democratic laws say that illegal immigrants must be expelled from the country. Instead of obeying their own law, this traitor condones the irregular and criminal behavior of these people and intends to make them full-fledged Spanish citizens.They call this democracy, but it's a true tyranny where these lackeys of the international plutocracy are robbing us of our country and our future.And on top of that, if you protest, you're a criminal son of a bitch and a piece of human scum who deserves to go to jail.
