Nope. I'm a socialist, which means I believe in the devolution of power to the people through and through. Please find where I've supported centralization of power.
As a socialist, you believe in the centralization of power, as centralization of power is the only way socialism can exist. You must force socialism on those who disagree with it to make it happen, thus it requires a strong central power to enforce it.
Most socialists I've encountered and studied seem to miss that part.
