    Not really, when the Nazis took control they removed all opposition. Same with the USSR and the CCP. Technically North Korea holds “elections” lmfao but there sure isn’t any competition to the dictatorship/monarchy.

      When the German opposition was mostly dealt with, they came for LGBT+, disabled, Jews and Roma. They never stopped until they were occupied by foreign forces.
