Western "democracy" is a fraud in claiming to be more democratic than
the Soviet Union. Most people couldn't vote until 1919. Money has
ruled elections forever, long before _Citizens United_. Putting the
word "democratic" before socialist , as in Western electoral
"democracy" besmirches the word "socialist." And oh, plenty of
American Presidents were less "democratic" than Stalin. Wahsington and
Jefferson owned slaves. Washington an d Jackson were genocidal Indian
murderers. Truman murdered 2 millon Koreans for being "Stalinists".
The Stalin myth is a bourgeois propagandist exaggeration, used as an
excuse to commit huge anti-democratic crimes against the working
class.
