Look at the elite's "1984" Newspeak vocabulary going on. In their minds, "democracy" is a sacred word meaning "good" (but really meaning "on our side"). You'll see them use it like this all the time. If it is good, it is on our side, and therefore a democracy. Like how they renamed Al-Nusra in Syria (which is Al-Qaeda), the "Syrian Democratic Forces" or SDF. Naturally they've no interest in democracy but once you know the Newspeak definition it makes perfect sense.
