      No, it’s shit. Period.

      Replace “socialism” with “handout(s),” and it works. “It’s never called a handout when giving billions to banks. But it’s handouts when ever poor people receive money.” Or “Bailout == Good; Handout == Evil”.

      But calling it “socialism” makes zero sense. Making matters worse, it continues the myth that socialism is about government handouts, instead of workplace democratisation, and worker control over the means of production.
