This would be a better argument if a major world power hadn't actively undermined all attempts at socialism.

To be clear, are you saying the United States was responsible for socialism’s failures?

See the cold war era for a quick rundown of US interference with socialist governments.

I'm saying... when the US instigates and funds a civil war in country X, you can't then say X's government lost power because of their economic policies.

That's dodging the question. Do you deny the connection between socialist policies and their economic consequences?
