I think it's generally well-understood amongst Socialists, the issue comes from those first learning about Socialism and thinking it is applied as dogmatism to the strictest degree, and isn't a drawn out process of iterative improvement following revolution. For such people, they need to know if "going along with" Socialism means they can't have a gaming PC or something, but the reality of Socialism is that it isn't nearly as rigid or strict as it is stereotyped as.
