So, I guess a question that needs to be asked is why democratic systems aren't working as intended in these countries. If there is such hatred of the current government that a coup is wildly popular, why aren't state institutions able to force a change of power democraticly?

And are the coups just setting up another government to overthrow a few decades from now?

Because they aren't democratic institutions. They are French neocolonial institutions and systems.
