The Soviet Union had a certain amount of Democracy, too.
The trouble comes when you try to use "the people's" resources to challenge the current power democratically.
Want to use the people's radio station to argue against the current regime, for example?
Sorry, but duly elected representatives of the people don't believe that's the best use of the people's property.
And by the way, the duly elected representatives of the people think your share of the people's food should be reduced.
That's how you get a one-party democratic state.
