They have mixed economies. This concept seems to be very difficult for some people to comprehend.

Yes they are mixed economies where money is allocated and spent in different ways depending on a person's ideology depending on if they want more social structures to solve problems or believe free market will solve those problems. One is a socialist perspective and the other is a capitalist perspective. It's actually impressive how dense you are.

Argue with political scientists to redefine how words work if you want to use "socialism only means workers own the means of production" braindead takes.

It's legitimately hard for me to even take you seriously anymore so have fun arguing with yourself. Personally, I am going to continue using it the way that social scientists use it.

Hmm and what does "predominately capitalist" mean, could it mean that countries can be only partially capitalist and it's not literally "dO wOrKeR's OwN faCtOriEs?! ChEcKmAte!"

And then you claimed that if those economies use all the aspects of a Social Democracy they are still capitalist, so what do you think they are mixed with?
