They purged roughly 10% - 12% of the opposition by parliament seats, yeah - that means it is at least that much less democratic. I'm just stating facts here. This isn't a strong defense of the democratic values of Ukraine, just a statement that they aren't wholly undemocratic as suggested in the meme - it's misleading.
