YES.
These terms are all used interchangeably as if they mean the same thing.
They do not.

If you are going to be all OMGWTFBBQ about something, at least be intelligent enough to know exactly what it is you are against.
Most people throwing these terms around are not.
If someone called a particular poltician's stance on an issue as "socialism" and you asked them what that word meant, chances are good that they couldn't tell you.
