    I’m not talking about how individual capitalists or socialists use democracy, but how democracy as a system functions in capitalism vs. socialism.

    You may as well be saying, “It’s not who uses the hammer that makes it bad, but how they use it, that does.” My brother in Christ…the person using it decides how it’s used. FFS. You are talking in circles again without realizing you’re arguing against your point.

      Do you believe that things like the media, culture, state, and industry have absolutely no impact whatsoever on how things are decided in a given system?
