Because democracy acts as a safety valve- which can be opened every 3-4-5 years to let the steam go off instead of bursting the whole engine. Remember this in Tahrir square,Egypt?
This saw two governments- Mubarak and Morsi violently getting overthrown within a year or two.
Now compare this against what happened in India during 2012. A widespread anger against the then UPA government for large scams resulted in people's movement against corruption which quickly spread throughout the country. Well there was no violence, no anarchy, no overthrowing of the existing government. In fact what happened was astonishing.
Huge wave of public awareness against corruption. Especially the youth started taking interest in politics
Subsequent increase in voter's turnout in election after elections culminating in India electing its first single-party government on the agenda of good, transparent and corruption free government(Yes, BJP crossed 272 on its own though it is still in alliance with other partners)
Birth of new party AAP which changed the rules of the game. They brought in new ways of crowd funding election campaigns with clean money, innovative ideas of campaigning like human posters and door to door campaigns. They also forced other parties to an extent to give more tickets to clean and young candidates.
So the democracy always allows people to channelize their anger and frustration positively. They can overthrow any government they want without resorting to violence.
2. Freedom of Speech
Yes, out of all freedoms - this one is the most important. We can speak against our politicians, parties and government on whichever platform we like. Yet another mean of channelizing our dissatisfaction in a positive manner. Media is not gagged (Yes, few bought out channels and paid media persons may exist but they are definitely not enough to fool all the people all the time) . When people have right to speak, right to ask questions and right to vote - public representatives can not remain unanswerable for long.
Agree that all the democracies have these sort of 'freedoms' which are not unchecked-there are always 'rules', 'laws' and 'hacks' to limit those freedoms in a certain perimeter (like NSA spying) but isn't that feeling of having those freedoms amazing to the mass?
3. No forced ideologies. People have the right to be 'right' or 'left' or 'center' in most of the democratic countries. They have right to follow their own faiths and religion. They have right to change their beliefs, ideologies whenever they feel like.
