Which seems to quite strongly indicate you're treating them as if they're the same concept.
Also, your graphic is no good. It would be more accurate if Democratic Socialism was somewhere in between Social Democracy and what it labels (reductively) as merely "Socialism."
Democratic Socialism is a type of Socialism. A person who believes in and advocates for Democratic Socialism is still a Socialist.
You don't have to advocate for "socialism as a whole" to consider yourself a socialist. You might disagree with some types of socialism and agree with others, and you'd still be a socialist.
Just because someone is advocating for Democratic Socialism as opposed to some sort of authoritarian/accelerationist/revolutionary socialism, does not mean they're not a socialist.
