        “Democracy” has nothing to do with “free healthcare” or any of those things listed. Democracy only means that the citizens vote. They can vote for stupid/bad things but it’s still a democracy. Similarly, a dictatorship that does some good things is still a dictatorship

          Would you consider what we have in places like America to be democracy?

            What you have in America, I don’t live there. But yes, I do, just a bad one. And if you believe in this meme I raise you another one: would you consider Kim Jong Un a democratically elected leader?

              Not even gringos think they have a democracy lmao. And if you do, your opinion of what a democracy is should only be used to consider the opposite.
