Solidarity to CodePink getting the message for diplomacy instead of endless money/arms heaping in the war as always. Can’t habeeb Bernie went from resisting with his full body weight between two cops in his youth, to dolling out zip-ties like friendship bracelets. 
Stalin is saying that social democracy is the response of the capitalists to a stronger proletariat, and the end outcome of social democracy remains the same as fascism - capitalists remain in power - and will withdraw the treats as soon as the revolutionary desires of the masses have settled down.
Stalin is writing in the interwar period before fascism has really demonstrated certain aspects that we associate with fascism today
to add something that helped me with this
social democracy is the carrot, fascism is the stick, end goal is to smother revolutionary fervor
but that is saying “social democracy in terms of the position of the capitalists results in the same outcomes as fascism” not “social democracy is fascism”, was the quote maybe about how they were supposed to treat the social democrats rather than an actual judgement of them?
Social Democrats are the moderate wing of fascism. Fascists are the extreme wing of fascism. That’s his point. They are symbiotic twins, two cogs in a machine that work in tandem
