Was it true that social democrats in Italy, Germany, and Spain all opposed the comunists from taking power, ultimately splitting the resistance against fascism?

[@Taimur_Laal]

@@Barklord yes

[@Barklord]

@Taimur_Laal In light of that, do you think it was an incorrect strategy to vote for the Democratic Party (against the Republicans) even though we have no realistic opposition on the political left in America?
