They responded with force and put down any unrest or uprisings.

Here are two examples:

June, 1953, East Germany.  Construction workers in East Berlin began the protests, demanding an increase in work hours and calling for a general strike.  The call to strike was broadcast over Radio in the American Sector (RIAS) in West Berlin and heard throughout East Germany.  Over a million workers in 700 cities and towns heeded the call to strike on June 17, 1953.  The Soviet Union responded swiftly and harshly, declaring a state of emergency and sending in tanks to larger cities where protests were occurring.
October/November, 1956 - Hungary.Protesters took to the streets in Hungary in October, 1956, demanding freedom from Soviet domination and more democratic political processes. Soviet domination and oppression continued relentlessly, as the USSR sent tanks and troops and crushed the Hungarian Uprising.  Thousands of Hungarians were killed or wounded and over 200,000 fled the country.

What according to Rosa Luxemburg were the consequences of European Social Democrat’s failure to block their nations’ government
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Rosa Luxemburg wrote in The Junius Pamphlet (1915) that the Social Democrats across Europe failed to block their nation's governments because they were docile and showed weakness, there was a waning of their fighting spirit.

Explanation:

Rosa Luxemburg (1871-1919), a prominent Marxist intellectual in Germany said that the Social Democrats failed to stop the governments of Europe from going to war, especially because the Marxist leaders had lost their fighting spirit (Luxemburg, Julius Pamphlet, 1915). The consequence is that the bourgeois state and the dominant classes were able to maintain their control of the state and institutions at the expense of the people of Europe who had to endure the war. Luxemburg said the European Left should see the war as a test of strength and that the Social Democrats need to learn how to be protagonists instead of a  "will-less football," (Chapter 1, The Julius Pamphlet). Luxemburg believed the party needed to take control of their own fate and history if their view of society was to prevail. It is known through other speeches and writing that Luxemburg believed the Social Democrats had become overly bureaucratized and the trade unions in Germany resisted the idea of revolution.
