Do you think there was much point in defending the Spanish Republic after the revolution was suppressed? I'm thinking of the argument, put forward most recently by Ronald Radosh, that the war was a clash between fascism and Stalinism (or, right-wing authoritarianism and left-wing totalitarianism; what was I thinking?), and so all respecters of actual freedom on the republican side died in vain.
