Do Catholic dictators go to confession?
Were they expected to confess to the killing of political opponents?

If Franco went to confession, I'm sure he confessed to political murders.

Werent communists deemed heretics by the catholics for various reasons?

No. They've never been looked on fondly by the upper echelons of of the Church hierarchy, but they were never declared heretics. Many of the lower-tier members of the Church organization have historically been very sympathetic to communist causes, even outside of Liberation Theology promoters.

Heretics? No.
But they were apostates. And that's even worse.

Franco had a confesor, so we should assume that he went to confession.
