This is not a demsoc source, though, it’s a collapse/post-civ source.
It is still worth noting that everyone in the West has CIA brainworms until they actively banish them, which takes years of extensive overwriting. The “only adequate socialism is the one that doesn’t exist” critique holds fairly well.
