Socialism is a label American Conservatives and republiqans put on anything that is wholesome and beneficial to society and does nothing wrong for anyone whatsoever so they can have an excuse to fuck it in the ass because they are the villains of the story of America.
Examples of things Republicans might think is socialism based on what they already find socialist:
The right to vote
A giant bowl of Benihana fried rice after a week of not eating anything
When a person who you fell in love with wakes up from a coma when you were sure they were dead and you spend the night fucking the shit out of each other under the stars surrounded by fireflies
Beating the final boss of dark souls
Being 10 in 1977 and watching Star Wars in the theater for the first time
Seeing your abusively authoritarian parents getting arrested while kicking and screaming
Sitting in a warm tent with some of your favorite people and reading funny stories into the night.
Playing red dead redemption 2 story mode
Finding the physical representation of all of your mental illnesses and stabbing it to death with a brick
I'm an American, I don't know this is
American: I just had to pay taxes this is totally socialism
Someone else: Yeah sure
when the government taxes businesses and corporations to make sure they wont build factories to create jobs. where the government trains and pays people to murder your opposition.
where the government steals all the money from doctors, and inventors, businessman, and rich people to pay poor people not to go to work, or to work jobs that don't actually do anything. when the government pays people to make 5% of the population perpetually poor.
the socialist matrix is to overeducate the middle class, overtax the rich, and to prevent the poor from going to school, or having enough money to actually afford to be employed.
this government is based on the idea of converting to communism - to force doctors to stay, to force doctors to work, and to make everyone poor thus ensuring the only reason people go to work, is so they don't end up in jail.
Canada is a capitalist society, the government pretend's its based on socialism, the idea that if you force people to be poor, you can increase education, and immigration!
A paradigm in which a return-value coin (a hypercoin) based on consumer demand is used to pay for distribution costs of capitalism. The offsetting of distribution costs creates a 'pure-pricing' instance in which goods can be priced purely on their production costs.
The savings in distribution costs can be used to create a 'macro' or mutual currency that is used to pay for durable public infrastructure.
The ratio between the hypercoin and the macrocoin can be used to create a stablecoin (intercoin) akin to tether which follows MMT rules.
The intercoin is used to pay for public services such as healthcare.
Socialism is arrayed around the ideology that mutual currency should only be used to pay for infrastructure.
The hypercoin is the foundation of the mutual currency.
The use of social media to connect with the world
Facebook and twitter promotes socialism to connect people together
A set of ideals and priority of values that makes up an ideology.
Based on Marxism, socialism is the first step on the way to Communism. While most believe it makes things fair, and equal, this is not the case. To bring one person down to make things "equal" is not fair. A common misconception is that streets and public schooling are Socialism. It's not when the schools don't teach party dogma by Government standards. While everyone uses the streets and everyone pays for them, they come out of taxes, so it's not Socialism. Socialism confiscates wealth. People willingly pay taxes (or face jail).
The former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and China are examples of Socialist countries. No Country to date has made it to Communism. But, they had/have communist parties ruling the country.
Socialism is neither fair nor allows for the pursuit of happiness. Everyone is equal in one way: Everyone is miserable.
