    Struggling for years to get power with the only goal of killing as many trans people as possible, only to get ousted after two years (in favor of a different person whose sole goal is killing trans people)

      End-stage Soc-Dem parties. Just one reactionary party leader getting backstabbed by a different reactionary, who, in turn, also gets backstabbed by another ghoul soon after.

      Was recently reading about the early years of the SPD (before the whole Weimar republic bullshit), and it’s just ridiculous how easy it was for the warmongering, anti-Semitic right wing to take over the party and purge all the left wingers right before WWI. People love to say that these parties are shit because of all the neoliberal influences since the 90s, but I think there’s just something inherently wrong with Soc-Dem parties that makes them so vulnerable to chuddy attitudes, and it’s not just them embracing capitalism.
