  I wouldn’t call it a coincidence that western capitalist states, especially the US, would do some pretty heavy lifting to convince all of their people that any actually existing socialist state is, or would invariably become, a dictatorship and horrible to live under. Socialism and capitalism are fundamentally opposed to one another and pretty much every aspect of US governance is fully controlled by, rabidly anti-communist, capitalists. They made absolutely sure of that in the red scare.
