Not to be pedantic, but saying “democracy eroded” makes me think there is some wide-ranging effort to undermine democracy along many vectors. If you just pointing to Evo winning elections in violation of term limits… idk that’s really just one thing. Even if I think that what he did was “undemocratic”, I wouldn’t call that a wholesale undermining of democracy.
You haven’t shown or proven any slow long term erosion though. Your entire thesis that it’s less democratic now is that an anti-democratic law was overturned and the populace elected who they wanted
this chart clearly proves that Evo Morales and MAS is less democratic, and therefore eroded democracy. Just because the fascists who came next (as they clearly should have, but don’t imply i support them since i never explicitly said that!!!) massacred people doesn’t excuse the lack of commitment to democracy from Evo. Checkmate tankie

It’s undemocratic when one person wins multiple elections in a row because a majority votes for them.
I disagree, to me erosion is a slow and natural decline that can be kept in check by proper maintenance.
