Socialism doesn’t “create” communities, it empowers them. Those communities already exist in the workplace. The difference is who is granted power in government.
It’s not capitalism that grants better “scaling,” it’s that our government is modeled after old Roman laws which are all rooted in military structure. Our government functions like this due to ancient restrictions with communication (before cars and electricity) and due to the warlike nature of western/Roman society and all Abrahamic religions. The entire point of sacrificing Abraham is to convince people to send their sons off to war. Jesus is about sending your son off to war. If we want a peaceful society we have to structure ourselves like one and not like we are actively inflamed and wanting to attack others.
Governments are whatever people want to agree to as a collective. The reason democracy and anarchy “fail” to our military trained eyes, is because people can decline or disrupt government at smaller scale. This is a good thing unless you want to mobilize against another country. Hard to force a 19 year old to shoot another 19 year old if they can just wall away and still get things like food and healthcare.
Even educated people are vulnerable to misinformation on topics for which they are not experts, and propaganda is a numbers game.
