People use the same word for different things.
I would wager that the vast majority of 'Socialist' posters on here advocate with things more in line with Social Democracy in the same vein as many of the left leaning Western European Parties.
In that case we would need a social democrat avatar.
To me, Socialism is essentially a synonym to 'communism' in that the person advocating for this ideology promotes the overthrow of the capitalist state and the establishment of a marxist-leninsts style of government and economics. In other words, full revolutionary change, not just 'increase the minimum wage to $15' or whatever people in Seattle are up to these days.
