    Instead of doubling down, why don’t you do some research on Venezuela to understand what context democratic socialism applies to, or literally just look up the structure of any communist party (Hint: its democratic)

        Well they regularly act in the interest of the people against the interest of the bourgeois.

        But maybe they mostly do what the people want because they just want power and their system rewards that.

        Democratic centralism is a Leninist organisational principle of most communist parties, in which decisions are made by a process of vigorous and open debate amongst party membership, and action is subsequently binding upon all members of the party.

        Democratic centralism

        The organization of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is based upon the Leninist concept of democratic centralism.

        Same guy, I made this account when I traveled to China, because HB and .ml are blocked. Ironically, .world isn’t. I stayed because less drama.

        Which communist party is or was democratic

        Nearly all of them, though in practice there are varying levels of corruption. A Vietnamese is much more likely to say “socialism means our government has to listen everyone” than an American say “democracy means our government has to listen to everyone”. Cuba is a particularly good example of democracy.
