>as cult of personality I never really saw it

His cult of personality was built around a dead dude who spain loved a whole lot more than him. It was there, just not around him, because he knew that he wasn't who Rivera was. But the cult around Rivera was enormous. There are some conspiracy theories around spain, particularly amongst the anti francoist falangist parties (they exist), that Franco let him die. I believe it. Rivera was anti-everything-Franco-was. Anti conservative, anti capitalist, anti reactionary, and anti monarchist. All things that Franco was.


>To me Franco just seemed like a timid short guy who managed to win his war and that’s it.

Precisely. But he was a schemer despite the fact. He took dictorial control over an entire nation by hijacking a party that consisted of his political enemies not even a decade prior, and purged the entire party under the noses of the whole country, and then held that party up on a pedestal for propaganda reasons. Almost like stalin did. Actually, exactly like stalin did. Although, stalin doing it was arguably a net positive because the alternative was Trotsky, who would have actually killed everyone in the ussr in a genocidal rage without giving a singular fuck about his neighbors at all.

The Spanish Civil War is the conflict that really puts the left right narrative to the sword.

Everyone involved was a leftist. A far leftist actually. National syndicalism is technically a variant of communism that's heavily diverged from marxism. Why is it communism? It believes in the proletariat seizing the means of production. Syndicalism is courtesy of a French schizo marxist named Georges Sorel who inspired, and actively supported, both fascism and leninism. Fascism went one way from his ideology and leninism went another way. Sorelian National syndicalism is the synthesis of both of these elements, and this is what the Falange followed. It was and still is an ostensibly left-nationalist ideology that was in conflict with left-internationalist ideologies.

What was the difference between them? One was the internationalist, jewish globalist left. The other was the nationalistic, racial, anti jewish left.

That's the biggest takeaway here. It isn't about left vs right. It's about jewish vs not jewish. There's anti jewish aryan leftist movements as much as there are jewish far right movements.
