I don't think any actual socialist would ever argue for an oppressive Soviet state either. They'd want stuff like public firefighters, health care, sewage, roads, etc. What is capitalism in service of society?

Social sector (non profits) have an important place in capitalist society as there are plenty of non-market / non-profit missions that are important. Unfortunately nuance is kind of lost in today's politics.
