For example: How did voting and elections work in the USSR?

What was press freedom like?

What were other examples of the expression of democracy in the Soviet Union?

About how many people supported the ruling party? (CPC is at about a 95% approval rate, how much was the CPSU?)

I know a lot of these are the stuff that liberals like to talk about so it would be really hilarious to find out that the Soviet Union literally had more “liberal freedoms” than the literal liberal nations.

    My general recollection of the governmental system is that people elected managers and lower level officials in their workplace Soviets, and those elected people would elect other people to do stuff, also people had instant recall of all officials. I could’ve sworn there was a video on it by Viki1999, but I can’t find any. Maybe, this will help: https://youtu.be/CKggZ22izDs Books I have been recommended, but have not read myself are: Soviet democracy, worker’s participation in the Soviet Union, the Soviet system of government, democracy and dictatorship in the Soviet Union, and USSR 100 questions and answers.
