Just want to note that you made an interesting and constructive message. For me, socialism is not an empty word. Socialism is the environment in which my ancestors lived and we live. In fact, this picture of government which was supposed to level the rights of citizens and make their life much better. There are some positive aspects. But alas, this is not enough. The positive sides completely depreciate against the negative sides. That is, this is more bad than good. It's my opinion.

Socialism amazes strong leaders. Strong leaders want more power. When they strengthen their power, they become usurpers. This happens almost always. We can study the history carefully and see it. Simply put - socialism in the literal sense is synonymous with totalitarianism. (semantic synonym). I do not think that "real" socialism has ever been achieved. In fact, the idea of ​​socialism is utopian.

You are right, every ruler creates his own form of socialism. But the basic ideas remain the same. As in other and the result.
I liked the article! It is interestingly described. Thank you
