I gotcha. I believe it. Have any book recs on the topic? Think this’ll probably be the my next lil history read after I’m done 100 Years War on Palestine
edit: topic being spanish civil war period
Thanks, I’ll read up on it.
But from what I’ve read so far, the violence wasn’t exclusively from anarchist groups and more of mass violence from all leftist groups during that time towards clerics and rightists?
Also who are these anarchists cleansing dissidents?

jwiggler@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you play an instrument? What's your favorite thing about it?English16·7 days agoI play guitar casually since a little before COVID. Becoming more fluent with it every time I play is an amazing feeling.
Getting into a groove, putting my own spin/expressing myself with songs I like, and jamming with friends are experiences that are unmatched in enjoyment for me.
Making up my own silly songs on the fly is fun too.
Learning to play is the best thing I ever did. I had to get over the idea that it would be hard work to get good, or the idea that I’d never be as good as someone who started as a kid, or that I’d ever even be technically good, at all. Letting go of that stuff allowed me to enjoy each moment playing, and just have fun.
That’s awesome you got back into it for pure enjoyment!
Gear acquisition syndrome is real though. Fortunately for me I was able to recover from it in the context of guitars. Unfortunately for me I picked up photography as a hobby…
