First of all, social democrat doesn't mean "watered down socialist". It means a socialist who favors a democratic electoral structure.

Second, these aren't tiers. If soc dem was somehow "less socialist" than "socialist" (it isn't, see above), it would still not be "worse", just a different set of values.

Social Democrat (which I think is what Bernie is closest to) is not socialist, it is the variant of capitalism used in many European countries (not limited to) like the Scandinavian countries. Democratic socialist is socialist

Edit: they sound similar but are really not
