Socialism is explicitly internationalist, and anti-captalist, while fascism is pro-capitalist and ultranationalist.
“Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power” - Mussolini
Socialism, unlike Marxism, does not repudiate private property. Unlike Marxism, it involves no negation of personality, and unlike Marxism, it is patriotic… We are not internationalists. Our socialism is national. We demand the fulfillment of the just claims of the productive classes by the state on the basis of race solidarity. To us state and race are one.” - hitler
there is no socialism in history which has ever successfully been implemented
Yet while so many socialist ideologues seem willing to make this “no true scotsman” argument on behalf of socialism
I take issue with this. Socialism has been incredibly successful everywhere its been implemented. There are some people calling themselves socialists, who accept all the capitalist propaganda about actually existing socialism at face value, and unfortunately they often do dominate socialist discourse in the imperial core. But anyone who has studied and learn about the USSR, Cuba, China, Mongolia in earnest, and learned from these movements, cannot but be awed at their achievements. The bottom article lists many of them for the USSR, and China in the modern day has some even more impressive achievements in lifting more people out of poverty than any other country in history.
This is a long topic that I can suggest more reading, but I recommend these introductory articles / videos:

Suprisingly good snopes article debunking “I thought the nazis were socialist”.
