I don't think one can say "always" until a lot more time has gone by. At a certain point in history it would have been possible to say that whenever monarchies are overthrown, they always morph back into feudalism, as in Britain in the 17th century and France at the end of the 18th. Also with the benefit of hindsight it is somewhat disingenuous to claim that any political entity so far in history could be described as "undiluted socialism". But these arguments always go around in circles, until history decides them.
