Do the workers own the means of production, at least in terms of government propaganda? No? Then it's not socialism.
Most industry in Venezuela is privately or publicly owned.
Venezuela also is not by definition a socialist country, it just has a socialist party whose goal is socialism. There still is a relatively strong opposition.
(Using the definition "a democratic welfare state that incorporates both capitalist and socialist practices")
Not at all, case in point: We are having a political discourse and people don't consider it interchangeable.
