Who did you vote for in the election of 1936?
- The Falange! (fascism, national-syndicalism)
- The CEDA! (monarchism, national conservatism, traditionalism)
- The Radical-Republicans! (liberal conservatism)
- The Popular Front! (Left Republicans, PSOE, anti-fascism, social democracy)
- The PCE! (Marxism-Leninism)
- Voting is bourgeois!
What should be done about the Church?(Context: the Catholic Church in Spain was very conservative and opposed to the Republic, and was often in conflict with the government, especially when the Popular Front came to power)
- The Church is only holding Spain back! We need to reduce their power!
- The Church is the backbone of Spain! We need to restore their full power!
- Paying lip service to the Church would be a good idea, but we don't want them to get too powerful
- Things are working fine right now...
- We need to move to a French-style secular state!
- Religion is the opiate of the masses, we need to become an atheist society!
- The Church is bad, but removing religion entirely wouldn't be worth it.
What should be done about land reform?(Context: a lot of Spanish farmland was controlled by rich oligarchic families, which made it difficult for farmers to make a living)
- We must break the hold of these families and create collective farms!
- These landowners are good for Spain. The farmers must find jobs on their own.
- Things are fine the way they are.
- We need to immediately redistribute all farmland amongst the peasants!
- Starting a measured land reform, after the Civil War, is a good idea.
What should be done about separatism in Catalonia, Galicia, and the Basque Country?
- Spain shall be a unitary state!
- Delegating more power to the provinces might calm them down.
- Grant them more autonomy, for now...
- A federation of communes, without a central government!
- A socialist federation!
How should the government respond to the Great Depression? (Context: Spain was hit especially hard by the Depression, and recovery was very slow)
- More power must be given to the unions (provided they align with our ideas and we can control them) and the power of large corporations must be curbed.
- We must implement harsh austerity measures, along with raising tariffs.
- A mix of targeted state spending and deregulation is optimal.
- We must greatly increase spending to get workers back on their feet.
- We should implement a 5-year plan, similar to the ones used in the USSR.
- The economy should be placed entirely in the hands of the radical unions.
- We must work with the Anarchists to transition into a decentralized socialist system.
Should the monarchy be brought back? (Context: Spain became a republic in 1931. The monarchy was unpopular in urban areas, but popular with much of the right, and the instability of the republic made a restoration appealing)
- Absolutely not!
- Maybe, as part of a compromise...
- Yes! This is my main goal!
Would you accept aid from a foreign country if it meant compromising some of your beliefs and goals?
- No! Our national revolution must remain pure
- No! We will not bow to the west or to the USSR!
- Yes! We must be pragmatic to achieve victory!
- Yes! Victory at any cost!
What should be done about treasonous leaders captured by our forces?
- They should be shot immediately.
- They should be tried in a military court.
- They should be tried by the people they betrayed.
- They should be put in prison until the end of the war.
How should Spain interact with the world after the Civil War ends?
- An alliance with Germany or Italy would be optimal
- We should establish a pan-Hispanic alliance with our former colonies
- Pragmatic neutrality is our goal.
- We should pursue closer ties with the Western countries
- We should align with the USSR
- We should prepare to spread our revolution to our neighbors
- We should establish a new alliance of like-minded socialists, in opposition to the USSR.
Finally, how do you feel about women serving in your militia unit?
- Absolutely not. Women have no place in the army.
- They could serve in auxiliary roles.
- Women and men must fight together!
