The current freak-out by Donald Trump, J. D. Vance, Marco Rubio, Stephen Miller, and other right-wingers about democratic socialism is quite rational. In socialism, they see a formidable foe.

He attacks socialism because it decentralizes money and power and control, the exact opposite goal of every corporation and capitalist.
What exactly do you mean by decentralizes in this sentence? Socialism still has a centralized State structure to enforce the rule of the working class. A centralized State is fundamental to protecting the revolution. No, revolution has succeeded that attempted to completely abolish the state. That would be anarchism not socialism.
But maybe you are just referring to a stateless, moneyless, classless society as a goal of the socialist state? Which would be Communism not socialism.
It means dispersion, rather than concentration.
