Just like the Republican factions in The Spanish Civil War attacking each other for having the wrong ideology while the Fascists tightened their grip.

Was one of the Spanish Republican factions fascist?

With a wide brush you can paint the picture like this: The Republicans were left wing communists (or at least they wanted a democratic republic) and the Nationalists were right wing fascists.

Nationalists won and they had a dictator (Franco) in Spain from 1939 to 1975.
