Scholz was one of the people pivotal to removing the passage about socialism from the SPD manifesto.
"Im August 2003 vor dem 140. Jahrestag der SPD schlug der damalige Generalsekretär Olaf Scholz vor, den Begriff ganz aus dem künftigen SPD-Grundsatzprogramm zu streichen:[46]
„Es gibt keinen Zustand mit diesem Namen, der auf unsere marktwirtschaftlich geprägte Demokratie folgen wird. Deshalb sollten wir nicht solche Illusionen erzeugen.“"

Not Scholz in particular, all Seeheimer hate the term but they were not successful in removing it from the programme, here it is.
