I haven't stated my position. Yes, I think our democratic processes could be better in many countries.

I also understand the reality that there is no simple 'one system" solution that is just going to miraculously fix everything.

No, we do not have democracy. We have bourgeois democracy that cannot be reformed into democracy.

What is bourgeois democracy?: https://www.leftvoice.org/bourgeois-democracy-what-do-marxists-mean-by-that-term/

If you are skeptical of the inability to reform bourgeois democracy I would do some reading on Allende and Chile.
