It is all managed either before voting with international agreements, (social-)media propaganda and by trying to harass, bully and threaten candidates or after the outcome of the actual vote by blocking the winner from implementing his new policies or simply denying him taking office (see Geert Wilders).
I'm curious what will happen in the UK. My bet is labour and the tories will govern together if that is the only way to keep the 'third parties' out of power.
Someone like RFK Jr. , who wants to dismantle the military industrial complex in favor of humanitarian pursuits will never be allowed near the White House.
They won't debate him, they won't invite him and whenever he gets some traction the hit pieces appear.
I don't know if that is a good or a bad thing but its certainly not Democratic.
What will happen in the UK is everyone will calm the fuck down and within the medium term start to feel richer because the adults are in charge with a huge majority
We were told that the adults were in charge as soon as It's Joever was in office and look at the state of it.
We haven't had a functioning government since 2015 at least. The amount of pissing about for no benefit whatsoever is extravagant in a way that the human mind cannot fully comprehend.
