Anybody who opposes democratic capitalism, in which the voters decide who governs and those who govern do so to reflect the will of the people, there are social measures like universal health care, universal education, rule of law, freedom of expression to criticise government, independent judiciary and rule of law, but still thinks that Marxism, Communism, Socialism, Theocracy, Fascism, Aristocracy, Absolute kings, dictatorship by a political party, an individual, the military, religious authorities, etc., is emotional irrational.
One thing is to criticise and fix capitalist democracies where improvements and corrections are necessary and a completely insane, irrational, delusional thing is to want to dismantle capitalist democracy and institute ANY of other systems mentioned.
As examples of capitalist democracies we have all of Western Europe, Japan, North America, etc.
Among those democracies some need more improvements than others.
Examples:
The United States needs to institute universal health care which could be government financed and run like in many democracies or, like in Switzerland, privately run and financed by citizens, with government assistance if necessary.
The US also needs to change electoral finance laws giving control of the electoral process to rich lobbies and big coroirations. As a result big private money controls elected politicians and de facto by-passes the democratic process.
All democracies, with the exception of Switzerland, give all legislative and decision making power to elected politicians and judges and zero such powers to the people.
Income inequality is growing but not equally in all democracies. For example in Nordic countries income inequality seems to be much lower than the US, Canada and others. No, the Nordic countries are not socialist, they are capitalist, highly efficient and competitive where with the support of the majority of voters, including paying high taxes, governments have instituted universal health care, universal education, good programs to train and retrain workers, etc.
What all democracies need, with the exception of Switzerland because it already had them, is the possibily for the people to relatively easily launch binding referendums on ANY issue.
For example, even the Scandinavian countries would not gave the problems caused by inassimilable immigrants and refugees or, if they did, it would be with the clear consent of the people who chose not to launch a referendum to stop such immigration.
Democracy is not perfect but, as practiced by the Northern countries, even if the people do not have direct control of politicians, it is a sound system. As practiced in Switzerland, where the people do have direct control, it is even better.
In other words, one thing is to improve productive capitalist democracy and another to dismantle it and replace it with any of other irrationak antihuman systems mentioned at the beginning.
