Socialism is now, and has from the beginning been financed by the mega rich western capitalist; Why ?
Socialism is the perfect environment for the creation of monopolies. Massive international corporations hate competition. So they help finance revolutions and overthrow governments that are not co-operative with their agenda's, especially if they (govt's)have sole source natural resources that the corp. wants.

"Massive international corporations hate competition"

I agree. But, as we all know, monopolies create economic and innovative stagnation due to lack of competition. Exactly the problem with socialism. Its a catch 22. Pure capitalism without political reigns is prone to massive economic and political corruption and pure socialism without economic freedom is prone to the same. There needs to be a balance.

I've been mentally toying with several variations of democratic republic government configurations that could theoretically help address such issues.
