When you can't do something yourself because the system wasn't designed for independence and you either have to talk to someone or more people aligned on the solution or ignore the problem and hope it goes away.
Socialism is when I couldn't answer all the test answers correctly without speaking to the lecturer.

(Civilian) Social Commandeering (AKA Social Hijacking)
A phenomenon where individuals, under the guise of social righteousness, attempt to seize control of someone's work, career, or reputation. These groups believe their moral or social agendas should take precedence and use social pressure to enforce this belief. On the internet, they often target artists, podcasters, or other creators, demanding that they endorse specific agendas or censor certain content. This practice forces creators to speak with a voice other than their own, undermining their original goals and leading to severe repercussions, such as public shaming or career damage, if resisted. This can be seen as a form of reverse 'Virtue Signaling,' where the pressure to conform is imposed externally rather than expressed personally.
