From Leftcom Wiki

Summary

Social Democracy is a flavor of Liberalism characterized by the appropriation of imagery and talking points associated with Socialism in order to push Reformism towards State Capitalism with end result of dissolving proletarian movements and prolonging Capitalism. A common tactic social democrats use to distance themselves from past betrayals of the proletariat is to claim they are "Democratic Socialists" in reality there is no significant difference between the two movements.
