proletarian dictatorships tend to have long-ruling leaders who are symbols of proletarian power that the masses can concentrate around and trust, because they have proven their allegiance in the revolution. Every proletarian state has had long-serving heads of state.

Democracy isn't "when leader changes a bunch". That just means a volatile system, or a system where the leader doesn't matter anyway and is just a rotating door.
