cuba and korea are already democratic, as in the sense of true democracy, workplace democracy. liberal "democracy" is nothing more than a cover for the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and foreign imperialists. just look at cuba and korea under their respective american and japanese occupations. thats what the liberal west wants to return them to.
Well "true" democracy is a rather open definition lol. With a minimalist definition enough even North Korea is a democracy based on them holding elections but I mean that is obviously not the case. Liberal democracy is just electoral democracy+ rule of law. You can have liberal democracy without capitalism and the bourgeoisie, just look at the Scandinavian countries before the neoliberalists took hold.
you unironically did the "socialism is when the nordic model" meme, lmaooo
sorry, i tried taking you seriously, but this is just too much
? The current Nordic model is hardly socialist, just a welfare model. But in the 60's it was on its way to eradicate the bourgeoisie and lift the under class in its entirety?
Didn't know it was a meme lol, what is it about?
no it wasnt. you should learn what words mean before talking about them.
Sure it was. It diverted after the 70's though. Any word in particular you think I don't get the meaning of?
This was true of, what? Denmark? But not the Nordic countries writ large.
