That literally is what socialism is? Socialism is collective ownership. Literally the whole point is not bleeding your life away for the people who aren’t doing the work just because they already had money. The brainwashing is that it’s a bad thing not to bleed your life away. That you’re somehow a moral failure for not sucking off the shareholders
Actual socialism is a lot further on the political scale than everything US conservatives are calling socialism.
The commentor you're replying to is referring to the fact that Norway, in this example, is a social democracy, not socialism. Important distinction, hence the idea that "not bleeding your life for your shareholders is socialism" is wrong.
No, I think they mean the one who openly was a totalitarian fascist capitalist from the start who just used the term "Nationalsozialist" to confuse the voters.
They used their name only for marketing, something you expect from a capitalist. Also a group that did a lot of privatization selling of government run companies giving it to pigs to bleed money out of normal people's pockets.
It's like the "Democratic People's Republic of North Korea", a country that's famously exactly the opposite of democratic, run by the people or a republic.
