Except Stalin declared Social Democrats "Social Fascists" and refused to cooperate with them. After World War II, Democratic Socialists joined the Anti-Stalinist Left because the Soviet Union was anti-Zionist and wasn't opened up to liberal degeneracy. The Social Democrats supported the pinko kibbutzniks in Israel over the Anti-Zionist Soviet Union.

Original Communists, which are International Communists, including, but not limited to Leninists, Trotskyites, Marxists, and Bolsheviks, all hated Stalin because Stalin believed that National Communism should be the first big step toward True International Communism.
Their reasoning was that National Communism would place irrevocable limitations on the growth of International Communism.
Communists hating each other proves nothing.

Really? So you've heard of the concept of a "Social Fascist" or the "Anti-Stalinist Left"? Social Democrats and Communists did not get along very well at all either during the Interwar or Cold War period.
