Lol this is the funniest example ever to try and defend democratic socialism. Literally all three of these countries faced attempted coups, and in two of them the coups succeeded for a period of time leads to dozens of people being killed. Venezuela also is the only one which successfully fended off all coups attempts because they established dual power structure communes with armed militias that weren't connected to the formal military, that likes to coup socdems alot

The problem is that in practice Democratic Socialists are often identical to Social Democrats and will support the same imperialist policies that oppress workers in the 3rd World. I would put both of them in greater camp of the left but the idea that DemSocs represent a major qualitative difference from SocDems is mistaken.

Also just from practical experience it's pretty obvious to any genuine Marxist how enacting socialism through the ballot box is a failed strategy, especially in the West. Genuine socialists will always be harassed by the media and couped by their own parties, as seen in figures as diverse as Corbyn and Bernie to Melenchon and Yanis. DemSocs have also been couped nonviolently as seen in Australia or violently as seen in Chile. From Bernstein to Bernie the movement to try and institute socialism through elections to state power have failed, because the state is not neutral and is specifically designed to uphold capitalism in the capitalist order we have today.

I'd suggest you read Luxemburg's Reform or Revolution if you haven't already: https://www.marxists.org/archive/luxemburg/1900/reform-revolution/
