      Nope, socialist democracy exists and is a break from individualist styles of democracy espoused by liberalism.

          How does, say, China’s model of Whole Process People’s Democracy, a form of democracy based on consultative democracy, flow from classical liberalism?

          These are stark differences and are reflective of Marxism as opposed to liberalism.
