Define socialism and let me know how economic theory impacts civil liberties. The US has had socialist programs for a long time and hasn't devolved into madness. If I recall correctly it's been the conservative Congress that has stripped protections by establishing "free speech zones", they pushed through the Patriot Act which stripped more civil liberties, they expanded the surveillance state, they removed civil liberties from everyone within 100 miles of the border to include airports. But you're right a business being told it can't discriminate against people when baking a cake is the absolute worst possible outcome. The cake maker had their artistic rights upheld by the courts as well, so I'm not sure what you're particularly upset about. Those other things I mentioned are still ongoing. I think perhaps you would benefit from adjusting your perspective and spending your valuable time where it actually could be impactful and useful to yourself and other citizens.
