    The entirety of civilization is based on socialism to one degree or another. Even dictators depend on socialism. The tipping point is where that socialism becomes leveraged for personal ambitions.

      Then it’s some form of dictatorship. And that can happen in any form of government, however “socialism” is usually used by wannabe authoritarian types as bait to get the population on their side during upheaval and regime change.
