To be honest I don’t care if the communists are Soviet or Spain. I just wanted to push back on the claim that the USSR supplied anarchists Least intellectually dishonest anticommunist. I’ll go ahead and spend one fucking hour reading through the sources again just to prove you wrong because I’m 100% certain that the at least half of weapons that the anarchists used were of Soviet origin.

    Ok. You wanna dance? Let’s dance. The USSR did supply (provide any weapons to) anarchists in Spain. However the Communists¹ didn’t supply (provide as many weapons as they could have to) anarchists in Spain. ¹: because as you pointed out the fault wasn’t just the USSR but Spanish as well. I was hoping that the context made the distinction clear but clearly that is not the case.
