Has there been a democracy somewhere, other than some small groups in ancient Greece?

It had been tried in Athens, during which time Socrates was executed. Plato then criticized heavily saying democracy always degenerates into mob rule.

Aristotle fled Athens when Athenian democracy made a comeback.

Also, you don’t think the governments we have today are democratic?

"Being democratic" is not the same as a "Democracy". If you can't show me a government that exists today as a Democracy, I'm all ears.
