The Social Democratic Party (SPD) drew its support from blue-collar trade union skilled workers, and at times from more progressive white-collar workers and intellectuals. While the party had proportionally more Protestant than Catholic supporters, it did attract Catholic workers. In some parts of Germany landless farm workers voted for the party. German women from working class families voted for the Social Democratic Party in large numbers. Some of Germany’s Jews also voted for the Social Democratic Party. From 1919 to 1932, the Social Democratic Party was the party that received the most votes in national elections and had the largest legislative delegation. The SPD was committed to further reform of Weimar society and hoped to eventually make the institutions and economy of Weimar more egalitarian. This party was a bulwark of the Republic and was the most active opponent of antisemitism during the Weimar years.

The marxists had a majority in the weimar government

People were sick of them driving the nation into the ground like they literally always do

Mensheviks supported in fact proto-fascists from White Movement to supress socialist revolution

Socdems are not socialists

@PugSlugger ok why they shoot revolutionary workers and shoot communists from Union of Spartakus?

The SPD was established as a Marxist party in 1875. However, the Social Democrats underwent a major shift in policies reflected in the differences between the Heidelberg Program of 1925 which "called for the transformation of the capitalist system of private ownership of the means of production to social ownership"[11] and the Godesberg Program of 1959 which aimed to broaden its voter base and move its political position toward the centre.[12]

😩

Cry more

@PugSlugger are you fucking retarded

Kerensky, a social democrat, feared a socialist revolution, which was seen in October

Any source on that?

"And I can understand how you like and trust and put your hope in Kerensky. You want to give him time, a chance, to act. He means well, you say. He means socialism. But I warn you he will not make socialism. He may think socialism, he may mean socialism. But, comrades -- I tell you Kerensky is an intellectual: he cannot act; he can talk; he cannot act. But you will not believe this yet. You will take time to give him time, and meanwhile, like Kerensky, you will not work. Very well, take your time. But when the hour strikes, when you are ready to go back yourselves to work and you want a government that will go to work and not only think socialism and talk socialism and mean socialism -- when you want a government that will do socialism, then -- come to the Bolsheviki" Lenin

>when you advocate for social ownership but youre not real socialists because you failed

<:bour:313709044957315082>

Yes it was established with participation of marxists but in German SPD always was bourgeois, opportunist tendency like Bernstein, Kautsky and so on who became anticommunists and antimarxists

>when you uphold capitalism while pretending to be socialist
