The USSR, PRC, Cuba, and DPRK all hold elections and practice(ed) some form of democracy.
They were not structured like Capitalist elections, but nonetheless had and have elections.

They’re sham elections. You telling me that fucking haircut in the DPRK is God emperor of North Korea because he has some mandate from the masses? He’s atop the throne because he’s the son of the last blowhard.
What countries are you counting?
The former USSR, China, Cuba, North Korea, and on and on do not hold elections.

When’s the last time haircut doofus had an actual election that he didn’t somehow manage 106% of the vote in?
2019, I believe. Wikipedia has the results.
He’s not even pretending anymore because he knows he’s God Emperor for life.
