Do you? The Borg are a collective consciousness, it’s the most democratic government in the galaxy.
My only problem with the Borg is they have a queen.
Democracy isn't that everyone is being forced to be of the same opinion. They don't vote for their actions, the hive mind overrides each personality with the overarching Borg characteristics, mean assimilation of every worthy race, eradication of danger. There is no individual left in this. If you think that is democracy or socialism then I don't know what else to tell you.
I don't think enforced conformity through literal mind control counts as democracy.
