We could have a long conversation about this, but I think the easiest way would simply be to say that:
Marxism is not the only form of socialism
Command economy is very, VERY specific to the style of Marxism-Leninism that was exported by the Soviet Union. You might find interest in anarcho-syndicalism, mutualism, and market socialism. Not because I think you’ll necessarily agree with them, but because they posit very different ideas about how a socialist economy should work.
Don’t assume I didn’t know about those ideas. And don’t assume either that I’d like them. I mentioned Marxism as Marx is considered to be the “father of scientific socialism”
I didn’t say that you’d like them, I only brought them up because you included a specific criticism of command economies when asked for your issue with socialism.

You don’t like anarcho-syndicalism?
Anarchism is a childish fantasy
Dude any “ism” that begins with “anarcho-” is just waiting for a smart person to become a dictator.
If you don’t realize that, it’s just proof you’re not the smart person who would take over, not that it wouldn’t happen
