Bismarck introduced anti socialist laws in 1878, which deprived socialist organizations of the right of assembly and publication.

Bismarck wanted to head off socialism. To combat it, he devised an employer paid welfare system that provided so many "welfare" type benefits, workers in his united Germany had no reason to rebel over lack of health care and other issues that socialists wanted to install in Europe.

By ‘capitalist workers’, I assume you mean workers who support capitalism. Most of them probably don’t have the slightest understanding of Socialism (a classless stateless society based on production for use), and see no alternative to capitalism.
Skilled workers felt discontent under Bismarck because they were not given a choice as to the skill they were trained to do. They were not paid like the regular workers today. Many were given coupons with which to purchase what they needed.

American socialists favor the working class. They strive to give the workers a break against capitalism. This means more tax breaks for the working class and less for the wealthy.
Early in his reign, Wilhelm II desperately wanted to be popular; he wanted to be a 'People's Kaiser'. In 1878 the Reichstag had adopted, at Bismarck's request, a law banning socialists from political campaigning, the publication of socialist books, etc. The law was renewed every four years till 1886 and up for renewal in 1890. Kaiser Wilhelm II didn't approve, Bismarck resigned and - to his astonishment - his resignation was accepted.
