Soldiers are a great analogy because the American military is one of the most socialist endeavours in the world. Everything they need is tax-payer funded. It’s incredible really.
Socialism is anti imperialism. Just because something is socialized doesn’t make it socialism. If the military was socialists it would have cut the head off the military and formed a workers militia. No wars for oil or opium, no military bases all over the world.
The military itself isn’t run for profit, but profits flow from military imperialism, which opens the door for financial I action and mass extraction and forced austerity for less developed countries.
If anything the military proves that such mass socialization is possible, which makes capitalism obsolete. But the military is not an example of socialism, don’t muddy the water with goofy opinions. Words have meanings, politics has consequences. Stop trying to have takes, fight for worker internationalism instead
I feel like soldiers are a not great analogy here as they’ve literally signed over their lives and autonomy.

Fascists hate socialism for others, but greedily extract from others.
Actual socialism is equal for all.

Whereas the children are just missing their autonomy without signing it over?
