You remind me of something (Parenti I think?) said, where he criticized people who had bad things to say about Castro, and said that people should compare the current regime with what it replaced; I’m reminded of the government that replaced Evo’s and the lady (whose name escapes me) who called the indigenous population satan worshippers.
I’ve no idea of the state of democracy under Evo, but if I recall correctly, he changed laws to allow the native population to work in the government where apparently prior it had been illegal for them to do so. His rule was actually great for Bolivia, which is probably why his party won the elections again after the coup.
An Example even you will understand: Hitler and Mussolini, one of them was slightly more democratic than the other. Does that make him a democrat? Certainly not.
what is “democracy” to you? Because the will of the people was much closer aligned to the actions of the state under him then after the coup

She’s doing just fine.
Agreed, but being more democratic is not the same as being democratic.
