I often see these words used interchangeably, though as I understand it there is a difference between the two ideologies, no?

    Capitalism with wealth redistribution is considered to be a potential method of achieving socialism or at least a significant amount of it.

    When you really get into the weeds on a lot of these ideologies you’ll find that the 40,000 foot overview of the single word that defines them is actually quite different from the actual process of getting there, and the people arguing for these ideologies actually understand that. They also understand that the means of getting to the goal, or even just closer to the goal, is sometimes the more important and worthy part than the actual end which may not even be realistically attainable nor permanent.
