Great, thanks for actually answering. You're wrong, of course, but thanks for actually answering, again. Good on you.

1. Socialism, ie worker ownership of the Means of Production, has had massive success in stability and worker satisfaction for Worker Co-operatives when compared to their Capitalist competitors.

2. Libertarian style Socialism has been successful in areas like the Chiapas region.

3. Even Marxism-Leninism has drastically improved metrics such as literacy and life expectancy in the major areas it was applied, such as the USSR and Maoist China, Cuba, etc. despite issues with how democracy was handled with upper Soviets having immense power.

I'm more of an Anarchist, personally, but the statement that "Socialism has always ended poorly" is just wrong. The most major example of a Socialist state falling is of course the USSR, which had a number of internal issues that ultimately didn't arise because workers owned the Means of production, but because as a developing country, they wanted access to global trade for luxury commodities from western countries, which led to liberalization and now the current fascism in the Russian Federation is a direct result of these Capitalists swooping in and purchasing everything they could, leading to what liberals call "Oligarchy."

Even then, the USSR doubled life expectancy, and the majority of Russians want it back, when compared to modern fascism in Russia.

On Lemmy, you'll find that most people generally accept that Marxism-Leninism is Socialism, even if they firmly disagree with it. You'll also find Marxist-Leninists on other instances like lemmygrad or hexbear, but you'll find it's usually Anarchists outside of that.
