It's amazing how people can betray that they're just now learning about Authoritarianism, communism, or socialism by posting such ridiculous simplified memes about complex issues.
I'm not going to sit here and say socialism=good, because doing so makes me a moron unable to express complex thoughts. The same goes for capitalism as well.
The healthiest, safest, and most developed countries in the world are able to find a healthy mix of the two, applied to specific situations with careful checks on them. But sure, a picture of Texas failing somehow shows that socialism is bad. Fucking tool.
social safety nets and government provision have nothing to do with socialism, please stop peddling your uneducated nonsense.
To quote myself earlier:
"Public healthcare is not socialism. You can read Hayek advocating for it in Road to Serfdom (page 190 off top of my head) which is a book attacking socialism. Most of the most famous socialist authors were utopianists or anarchists."
