Only if you exclusively get your history from western liberal revisionists terrified at the prospect of another Franco, or worse for them a proper Falangist system along the lines of Jose Antonio himself taking root anywhere. Fascism came to be at a time of US/Soviet hegemony, as such only communism and liberalism were allowed to exist by threat of overwhelming military violence. Evil men and human suffering pose no threat to the status quo, so dictators of course were permitted to exist so long as they bent the knee one way or the other. But Spain walked the line and prospered spiritually and interpersonally as a fascist system under Franco in the shadow of the Spanish Civil War, the only reason the system collapsed into liberalism was because Franco never prepared a successor. Autocracies have historically been frequently the best systems for societies. The problem with liberal hegemony is that it disallows good men from being autocrats,and as such only evil men seize nations anymore. We need more good men willing to seize nations, we need to return to the time of reluctant kings. Fascism is simply the ancient (and most universally successful) way of human government adapted into a modern economic scheme.

Of course, there are always the republican apologists who say that era was terrible, but the Republicans were brutal savages who raped and murdered nuns and priests for sport. It was a brutal war on both ends, both sides could be exceedingly cruel where there was a battlefield, but only one of those sides had even a play at a moral compass.
