I suspect that the 30s Social Democrats of Germany were similarly irresolute (though didn’t join before they were forced to) when dealing with the Nazi threat.

The social democrats started the iron front, they fought the SA in the streets, they didn't join them. Their party was banned and members where thrown in jail once the Nazis won.

I sit corrected, then. Should have known better than to think Social Democrats as useless as liberals in fighting fascists tbh, given what we're seeing today..
