    Lmao what.

    Primo de Rivera was a corrupt idiot who got in power supported by the right wing so the liberal governments wouldn't expose SOME of the corruption at the time (there was a lot of it) and avoiding the publication of the Picasso report.

    And he was such a failure that his dictatorship lasted 7 years and led straight to the republic because the king supported him so much that even the right wing and the bourgoisie thought a republic wouldn't be that bad.

    (Also i wouldn't call him exactly a fascist, but i guess it's not too far off, even the king called him "my Duce").
