Who's the one telling you that the USSR, Cuba, China, Venezuela or Vietnam are/were autocracies?

If you actually investigate countries that have substantive / economic democracy, which goes far beyond the liberal equality before the law, you'll find them to be far more democratic than the countries accusing them of being autocracies.
