Socialism to some extent has been successful in some countries. Sweden is a good example.

No it isn't. Pretty sure that they have a lot of private entities owning the means of production in a free(ish) market, and not mostly the government ?

I agree with your statement, perhaps with a very loose sense of “socialism to some extent”.

However, socialism is not communism, which is what the GP comment mentioned.
