Even in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe there was democracy. There were election held, with very little fraud. I remember my father taking me to the voting booths when I was a kid - there were only red and orange ballots inside (the orange were the Communist party subsidiaries the Farmers Party). Communists won 80% of the votes the farmers 20. We had elections, we had democracy, we could vote. We lacked freedom and choice.
