Things don’t need to be opposites to affect each other in predictable ways.
They are both decision making processes where different groups hold power over society’s resources. Democracy very much has economic power and Capitalism is very much about who gets to make certain decisions.
That’s how all societies work though. We live in a world where sacristy is reality, and therefore there will always be people competing to control the same limited resources.
That’s just cope. The reality is that communism is fundamentally flawed to the point where failure was always going to be the inevitable outcome. That’s why despite a century of nonstop attempts across all cultures and lands, not a single attempt panned out well. They all either collapsed or reverted to some version of capitalism. The opposite never happened.
These aren’t opposites. Democracy is a system of governance, capitalism is a system of economics. A society can be both at the same time.
You cannot have real democracy when there is a ruling minority class, as in capitalism, simple as that.

They have what you might call… friction.

Okay, give me your wallet.
I can list at least one.
Can’t think of a communist democracy, though.
To be fair, any of the counties that attempted it had a coup enacted by fascist capitalist countries to prevent them from doing so.
