Wanting to retain private ownership as the principal aspect of the economy makes Bernie a social democrat, not a demsoc. Maduro is closer to a demsoc in action.
Social Democrats are liberals that want expanded social safety nets while retaining bourgeois rule, the “class harmony” people. Democratic socialists are reformist socialists, socialists that wish to establish a socialist economy via electoral means. Allende in Chile is a famous example of one that almost worked. Venezuela right now has elements of revolutionary heritage from the Bolivarian revolution, but is still quite electoralist.
