It’s not linear. Anarchist or Libertarian Socialist systems like Syndicalism, Mutualism, Georgism, and Distributism are just as Socialist as Marxism in that they prevent the exploitation of capital accumulation, but they favor direct stakeholder ownership of firms in place of a state or other more communal systems that create an inherent hierarchy of power.
Uh. Okay. If you say so. I wasn’t going to say anything about the No True Scotsman fallacy, but you really did force my hand with that last one. That’s outright silly, and a pretty vile attempt to coerce conformity out of of other progressives who don’t align with your perspective on economics by thinking you can label them “right-wing” for it.
Not wholly opposed to that, markets can serve the purpose they’re designed for, and I could see an evolution of cybersyn that helps run the economy using simulated markets.
As a Mutualist, while there are a few things that could be better centralized, I’m in favor of a full worker consumer cooperative economy. Housing, groceries, and, utilities all work better as cooperatives, but capitalist have enough wealth to often push cooperatives out in other markets.
There’s also a middle ground between consumer cooperatives which are more on the communal side and worker cooperatives that are more on the libertarian socialist side with Worker Consumer Cooperatives that align both kinds of stakeholders with ownership and management reducing exploitation on both ends.

I’m not sure if you’re gatekeeping or just generalizing.
