    Where is the inaccuracy?

        You could at least check your claim against the map. There are as many exceptions to that rule as nations that fit that rule.

      Innacuracy is that even leaving the particular country classiffication aside, the entire definition is a complete nonsense. How does electoral democracy differ from liberal democracy? Liberal ones don’t have elections? Lmao looking at most of those countries it would actually be more or less true, since the elections don’t mean shit there. What even is the electoral autocracy? Sounds like total buzzword to somehow rationalize the most shallow and abjectly untrue definition of democracy which is followed by most western media “democracy is when you have elections” (also most of the red countries does have elections too). Maybe it is when you have elections but they don’t mean much or anything, like in majority of blue and dark blue countries where there is only few capitalist parties to choose and actually holding politicians responsible for their promises and actions is practically impossible? What is “closed autocracy”? What is even closed there, if you look at China or Cuba they have way more diverse and mobile politicians unlike west where we see basically political caste, hell even in fucking Poland one generation after coup we see shitton things becoming hereditary.

      It’s just the same first world map as every fucking time just with new but still meaningless and identical as always metric added.

        A liberal democracy is an electoral democracy plus:

        …judicial and legislative constraints on the executive along with the protection of civil liberties and equality before the law.

        Closed autocracies are defined as:

        No multiparty elections for the executive; absence of fundamental democratic components such as freedom of expression, freedom of association, and free and fair elections.

        They have more on their criteria here. But based on that criteria, it’s pretty hard to argue that the country that’s unabashedly responsible for the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre and built the Great Firewall allows freedom of expression or freedom of association.

          Pressing X really hard for some of them

          No multiparty elections for the executive

          Called it

          absence of fundamental democratic components such as freedom of expression, freedom of association, and free and fair elections.

          Obligatory question “for which class”, people acting for the working class power does not seem to have much of those freedoms in the many blue countries.

          Also you lost me at Tiananmen square massacre, even your own western media debunked this one.

        Your logic is so deep and unassailable that I cannot comprehend it.

          Yeah, maybe if you ever read Marx you’ll manage to understand it.
