Real madrid is widely hated by all spanish people outside of madrid and plastics (which young people might be so ymmv)

the gist is this, they ignited rivalry with barcelona during his reign (with almost certainly shenanigans in 11-1 game), and then, later, were wildly successful (more than man u for example), so trolling that they were pet team (getting favors and money) of fascist dictator is a good bit (your most famous team is pet project of a fascist etc)
