Basically because it makes them look good.
As a matter of fact, Franco would make just about anybody look good in comparison.
He's a French twit's dream come true. A Spaniard, whose name evokes fascist times and dictatorial methods, racist to the extreme and who writes post after post full of easily debunked lies and ridiculous rantings against French people. I mean, who wouldn't like to have that kind of "enemy". Even a worthless, good-for-nothing twit, looks valuable and worldly by his side.
If I were a French twit whose wife had cheated on me during a holiday in Spain (just an example), my logical reaction as an arrogant twit would be not to blame my evident lack of manhood, but to hate Spain and all Spaniards in general, and out of resentment I would use any opportunity to try to make them look as despicable as possible, I would even hire a guy like Franco to contribute to that impression by posting insanities to forums.
And then, I would close my eyes and dream that I'm a real man ...
