1) democracy automatically produces communism and 2) communism is very evil.

The paradigmatic cases of the evils of communism are Russia and China. Neither country was ever a democracy. The third paradigmatic monster of the 20th Century, Naziism, did arise from a democracy, but was not communism.

What is the X you are referring to, that democracy produces, and that produces evil, and what are the examples?
