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.
Social Democracy depends on Imperialism and Capitalism in the global north, is inherently unsustainable, and sees sliding of worker protections and rights over time, just like what happened following the New Deal in America. Reading theory makes it clear why.
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.
You do realize you’ve moved the goal posts over time, right? Flawed democracy is still democracy, and if you’re going to pretend it isn’t then we have to agree that the US isn’t a democracy either.

George W. Bush was elected.
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.
