Because democracy is just as bad as fascism…
Fully aware you're being mockingly sarcastic, but there's some truth to that - democracy and fascism aren't some "polar opposites", but rather just a form of class rule and you get one or the other depending if times are good. If times are relatively alright, you have normal democracy and elections, and when they're not (with there being risks of severe class conflict or overthrow), that's when you get fascism to concentrate capital and suppress dissent.
Also, a "working democratic system" doesn't say much when there's nothing more to it than billions in campaign funds and media to decide who's getting elected.
