Sanders is a socialist who strives for a socialist society, not a liberal democracy. A quick stroll through history shows that where socialism takes hold democracy tends to suffer because those who oppose socialism are seen as "enemies of the people" or "enemies of the state" who should not be allowed to speak.
Having said that it is true that Sanders should have been the candidate for the "democratic" party in 2016 seeing how as he got the most votes but the '"democratic" national convention' had other ideas and shoved him aside in favour of Hillary 'we came, we saw, he died' Clinton just like they shoved aside their single permitted candidate in 2024 to replace him with someone who never got elected to any position. Just like Trump took a wrecking ball to the Republican party it would be good for the "democratic" party if someone came in to do the same to them so that something new could rise from the rubble which hopefully aligns closer to the party's name. Until such a time I consider it improper to omit the quotes around the name, "democratic" party.
