You’re probably talking about the ideas of philosophers before Marx who were socialists. What we understand the word “socialist” to mean today is that of an ideology with variations by Marx/Lenin/Stalin/Mao. It’s a different thing altogether. Fire departments and streets existed long before Marx lol. If you consider lot of things with government intervention “socialist tenants”, they also overlap with “fascist tenants”. *I don’t think we want people to start going, “Hey we need a little more fascism here! Just not State Fascism!”.
*I know this is a serious subject and humor may be inappropriate or offensive to some people. Just imagine I’m saying this out loud in a Bill Burr voice.
