“For millennials,” writes the Huffington Post’s Zach Carter, “‘capitalism’ means ‘unaccountable rich people ripping off the world,’ while ‘socialism’ simply means ‘not that.’”

That's actually the most straightforward explanation I've heard. Corporate bad actors give capitalism a bad name, and the public starts grasping for "anything else".

“For millennials,” writes the Huffington Post’s Zach Carter, “‘capitalism’ means ‘unaccountable rich people ripping off the world,’ while ‘socialism’ simply means ‘not that.’” Socialism: noun 1. A political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole. 1.1 Policy or practice based on the political and economic theory of socialism. 1.2 (in Marxist theory) a transitional social state between the overthrow of capitalism and the realization of Communism. Hmmm.
