Democracy was on full display in Honkers for years with regular huge demonstrations of it in the streets. This is popular democracy any real anarchist can defend - easily.
Wishes, indeed bleating foolish and revulsive, by the "popular" to forcibly subjugate others, and the sheep among themselves, to the ruthless tyranny of governments, regardless of their form... is not anarchist, and cannot be defended as such. While in some tradeoffs it may be possible to wager one govt form or more specifically one political party that more amiable to converting to freedom, or disrupting for then enabling freedom, against a less amiable one, in order to use them to achieve freedom sooner (enemy of enemy is friend)... but only provided resources spent in levering it are more fruitful than direct use of same resources towards achieving direct freedom. That is unanswered question as analysis of cost and fruit in such wagers is always complex, and as seen among governments, often fails or backfires. Trying to wager "Democracy" against "Communism", or vice versa, is moot and stupid, because re freedom, they both suck, badly.
US-led imperialism
China "Belt and Road", Sharia govt religion of Islam, etc are all same thing as that... all are tyranny, not freedom.
